Our in-house artists’ superior design capabilities give our clients the opportunity to create beautiful hand-painted magnets, customised and branded specifically for their shop, attraction or brand. The designs are based original hand-sculpted designs which are then intricately hand-painted using Windsor and Newton oil paints by our highly trained South African artists.
