FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What types of props do you create?
We offer both ready-to-purchase props and fully bespoke/custom pieces. Our off-the-shelf collection provides beautifully crafted designs available for immediate order, while our custom service allows us to create one-of-a-kind props tailored to your specific project or brand.
2. Can you create bespoke props for a specific project or brand?
Absolutely. Bespoke design is at the heart of what we do. We work closely with clients to understand their concept, brand identity, and desired atmosphere, then create one-of-a-kind pieces made exclusively for their project.
3. Do you offer rentals?
We focus on ownership, not rentals. Every Artis prop is designed to be a lasting creative asset—crafted for you to keep, reuse, and build upon for future projects.
4. How long does a custom prop order take?
Production time varies depending on size, complexity, and materials. Smaller projects may take 1–2 weeks, while large-scale or highly detailed builds typically require 4–6 weeks. We recommend reaching out early to secure your preferred timeline.
5. Can you work with creative teams outside of London?
Yes. While based in London, we regularly collaborate with clients across the UK and internationally. We can arrange secure shipping or on-site installations for larger projects.
6. Do you offer creative direction or styling services?
Yes. We provide a paid creative consultation service where Joshua works directly with your team to guide set design, prop placement, and visual storytelling. This ensures that every element enhances lighting, composition, and the overall mood of the shoot or production.
7. What materials do you work with?
We select materials based on the project’s needs, ranging from wood, card, and acrylic to speciality finishes like lacquer, fabric, and custom paintwork. Sustainability is a priority, and we source responsibly wherever possible.
8. How do I request a quote?
Simply contact us with details about your project, including its size, style, materials, and timeline. We’ll provide a custom estimate and guide you through the next steps.
9. Can you replicate props from a reference image?
We can create pieces inspired by a reference, but we always add a unique touch to ensure the final product remains original and tailored to your brand or production.
10. Do you handle delivery and installation?
Yes. For larger or delicate pieces, we offer white-glove delivery and installation services to ensure everything arrives safely and is set up perfectly on-site.
