We separate ourselves from the competition

Our method of spin casting in vulcanized rubber molds, allow us to achieve the highest detail, on versatile designs and slopes. Our castings are individually hand cleaned, deburred and polished. Sometimes we will solder together multiple parts, thereby achieving complicated awards designs. This unique ability to cast, combined with sculpting talent and experience, makes our company excel far beyond other award and trophy manufacturers.

Located near the Los Angeles, CA area north of Hollywood and the San Fernando Valley. We accept orders from all over the United States and we do accommodate international orders as well. Our prices are very competitive as we look to save costs whenever possible.

We offer custom mould making and a full production refinery at our facility. No need to outsource or import! Our Products are definitely NOT Made in China!

About Us

Michael De Medina began the company as a sculptor, silversmith and goldsmith. He has created and designed custom sculptures and awards for over 30 years spanning a wide rage of businesses, industries, events, and clientele.

With these disciplines he taught his apprentices how to make custom trophies and awards. Some Awards require the likeness of a corporation founder or president. Sometimes the design called for requires attention to a specific style, such as Art Nouveau, or Ultra Modern, these challenges are met successfully by the artisans at American Metal Arts Studios. Browse our site for many samples of custom awards, metal art work and sculpting.

American Metal Arts has worked with many art directors, set designers, as well as costume designers to produce special props. Movie studios at times have requested special one of a kind items for a movie.

We have made special, one-of-a-kind pieces for wrap parties and gifts. American Metal Arts Studios has always met the challenge successfully.

Our close proximity to Hollywood, CA has provided not only an opportunity to work for the Movie Studios, but also create commissioned statues and art for celebrities as well.
