Marine ART
is a division of Torogoz Co.
Torogoz was founded in 1976 as a family business targeting the awards and home decoration market. The company’s peculiar name is taken from the National Bird of El Salvador (Momotus) as a tribute to its beauty from our founder, Oscar Panameno.
Our awards and decorative home items perfectly combine quality and design. We have more than 150 collaborators, including technicians in the metal process and great skilled artists that make the creations of our Fishing Sculptures, Custom Corporate, and Sports Awards possible.
Our Fishing Sculpture Awards have been in tournaments in more than 45 countries, including the United States, Mexico, Central America, Caribbean Islands, Angola, Thailand, Spain, Australia…
“I was born into a very creative family, and my father, Oscar Panameno, the founder of our Family Business, TOROGOZ, always motivated me to develop my art.
Thanks to my company’s processes and techniques, I leaned towards the Design of Metal Products; this is how I became the Designer of all the product lines we produce: Awards, Decorative and Religious Figures, and a Collection of Decorative Murals.
But of all the products I have designed, and with which I most identify due to my love of the sea, is the line of Home Accents and Fishing Trophies. I am proud to know that we have rewarded the efforts of competitors in more than 45 countries around the world, and we continue to grow…

OUR Technique
All our designs are made with top-quality virgin metals. Their finishes are handmade, which is why no piece is identical, and its beauty lies in those minor differences between them.
And best of all, we apply a protective coating that makes their maintenance minimal, and their finish remains intact for a long time.
DESIGNING
Our artist Maru Panameño is constantly developing new ideas and new finishes to make each piece a real piece of art.
SCULPTING
Marine Art and Trophies have talented sculptors who give life to each product designed to transform your spaces.
METALLIZATION
In Marine Art and Trophies, every decorative accent or sculpture is metalized by an electroplating process that allows cover with real premium metal for any design envisioned by our artist.
FINISHING
Each of our pieces is polished individually, getting different finishes such as satin, bright, antique, or verdigris patina. Because the product is handmade, no piece is identical, and its beauty lies in those minor differences between them.
We cover each piece with a clear lacquer that protects the product keeping its finish for a long time free of maintenance.
