Tanplaters

The frame is custom made using quality mouldings and mattboards from Australian suppliers and features a timber gold fillet incorporated into the mattboard. A standard size frame with 3 wheat stalks is priced at $350. Other mouldings and colours of mattboard are available and costed accordingly.

To organize the plating and framing do the following :

• Wait until the heads are fully developed and the grain is plump
• Pull the entire plant from the ground while still greenish. Wash off the roots. Include 2 plants if you wish. We usually electroplate more than we need and pick the best 3 stalks.
• If you are concerned about the grain shaking (especially barley) in transport, spray all over lightly with solvent based lacquer or hairspray.
• Package the plant(s) with plenty of padding and send to Tanplaters, 32 Wallis Street Port Neill 5604. With your details, include the property owners name, name of property, variety of grain and year of harvest.
• If you have any special requests please include them.
• Wait to be contacted about the arrival of the grain and a firm price.

Tanplaters will contact you when the frame is finished and ready for dispatch. We will usually send via Australia Post and the freight and packing will be added to your account. We usually require a 50% deposit before commencing the work and the balance before dispatch.
