Chris Becker

About Me

Chris is the founder and hands-on artisan behind Tribute Forge — a heartfelt endeavor born from a lifelong love of animals and a deep commitment to honoring their memory.

Each pet tribute Chris creates begins with precision and care. Chris refines your pet’s sculpture to capture their unique pose and expression, sculpting an artistic model through meticulous sanding and polishing. The piece is then brought to life with layered applications of primer to wax and everything in-between — each step designed to preserve character and evoke emotion.

Once the sculpture is complete, your custom message is integrated and the overall tribute is carefully packaged and shipped.

Your tribute is a personal monument — crafted with reverence, authenticity, and the deepest respect for the bond you shared.
