1) How long does an ice sculpture last?
An ice sculpture will last six to eight hours in an ambient temperature of approximately 70 degrees fahrenheit before loosing the basic details, shape and form. Outdoor set ups will last a shorter time due to exposure to the natural elements. The wind, sun, humidity and rain will negatively affect the life of an ice carving.
2) What kind of sculpture do you offer?
All of our work are hand crafted. There are no limits as to what we can do. This website features a wide selection of finished sculptures to choose from. Or we can take your ideas and customize them into melting memories. If you can imagine it we can create it.
3) How big will my sculpture be?
There are no limits to the size of the ice sculptures we could create. A standard crystal clear ice block is our raw material. The dimensions are 40" tall x 20" wide x 10" thick and weighs approximately 300lbs.
​
All sculpture may vary in size and weight depending on the design. Most standard or single block sculptures may have the dimensions of 40" tall x 20" wide x 10" thick or 50" tall x 40" wide x 10" thick.
4) How far in advance do I need to order my sculpture?
The earlier the better. One to two weeks notice is good. We will try to accommodate late orders. Popular seasonal dates and weekends fill up quickly. Ordering early helps to ensure availability.

10) How much does my sculpture cost?
The price of each sculpture vary according to the amount of ice used to create it, the time it takes to create and the complexity of the design.

Reserve a 24"x 24" surface area for standard sculptures and a 24"x 48" for large sculptures.
6) What kind of table do I need to put the sculpture on?
A strong sturdy folding table from your local hardware store is good enough for most ice sculptures. Any other strong table will do, no glass tables. Add a tablecloth for better presentation.
7) Do you freeze items in the sculptures?
Yes we freeze objects in our ice sculptures to make embedded ice sculptures.
Photographs are laminated and inlayed in the ice to make picture frames.
8) Do you use molds to make your ice sculptures?
