Scottsdale Art Factory approaches its world class products beginning with the fine signature art of Artist H. J. Nick.

We also take inspiration from ideas created by our clients. Scottsdale Art Factory hand builds everything from simple home furnishings and fine custom Furniture, Cabinets, Doors, Gates, Lighting and Hand Forged hardware to unusual designs that are larger than life. Such as artistic furnishings for major world corporations as well as private homes.

When we are commissioned a project no matter the size, our art department is given full freedom to produce a more inspired piece. In some instances, several in house designers are given the same commission information in order to further the creative process. Each design is accepted or rejected through a juried process. When a design is accepted, it is built and the original is either yours if you ordered an original work or is offered as a signature piece to museums, galleries and private collections worldwide.

(O/A) Original Works Are Always The Best Investment

There is nothing better than original works in anything made by man or in nature. Original Works means the item produced is made from the best natural materials that can be found the world over. Such as exotic old growth woods, hand forged forged metals, precious metals, finest cuts of stone, rare gemstones, or rare natural materials, etc. Original works also means that no short cuts in time or in detail were taken in the production process. Original Works means one of a kind made by a world class master.

When you possess an original you are the only person that has one and it can never be duplicated. Original Works also means it can not be made better or exactly the same by any one. Original Works also means true pride of ownership usually adding warm memories to family heirloom history. When this type of furnishing is built special for some one or for a special occasion the memories and history associated around such items can make them priceless as well as create true immortality. Simply stated Original Works Are The Best And Are The Best Value. All Scottsdale Art Factory originals are signed by H.J.Nick and are certified by invoice.

True art defines our society and also can define who we are as individuals. It is a rare privilege to be able to be creative in a way that can individualize your dreams, accomplishments, or simply create your environment to fit you personality or life style. With Artist H. J. Nick along and the SAF team you can do just that. You do not need to be creative to become a part of this process, you simply supply your ideas or project you wish to create. Our imagineers will take it from there using our unlimited process.

(L/E) A Limited Edition Is A Quality Reproduction Of The Original Art Furnishing.

A L/E is a less labor intensive reproduction of the artist's original work. It is produced through a combined effort between the original artist and a master craftsman or artist's assistant. Some L/E's incorporate the use of apprentice craftsman learning to become masters, this allows for a reduction in the cost of labor. All L/E's are produced under the strict supervision of the SAF art department. Each L/E is a close copy with less detail of the original door, gate, lighting fixture, furniture, art, or furnishing, and may be ordered in sizes other than the original.

A L/E Is Designed To Be Produced At A Lower Price This requires these items usually to have less detail thus reducing labor cost. Such as, less detailed carvings or less design detail or hardware etc. However raw materials are equal in structural quality to the original piece and are hand selected from our first selection new growth lumber by master craftsmen. L/E's do appreciate however at a lesser rate of return than original works. The best way to understand this is in the antique world. Original's are simply signed and dated, Limited Editions are signed, numbered and dated. Depending upon the total number made usually determines the future antiquity value. Another example: A Gustav Sticky furnishing built around the late 1800's- early 1900's that were mass produced sell today for a fraction of a Green And Green original furnishing built around the same time in the same manor (see Gamble House Pasadena, Ca.)

H. J. Nick is a third generation world renowned, accredited artist, whom has received many prestigious awards. Along with the history and reputation of Scottsdale Art Factory for its ultimate quality, the H. J. Nick limited Edition has proven to also become a increasingly valuable collectable work of art.
