Crystal trophies to honor the best

Posted by alisonreid29 on September 23rd, 2014

Everyone likes to be appreciated for his or her good work. It boosts our confidence and makes us want to work harder and better. It inspires others in the team to achieve that level of excellence. Whether it is a local club baseball match win or a target achieved at office, awards are a part of recognizing the best. Earlier such awards were mostly associated with sports, but, nowadays they have spanned to various other areas such as performing arts and even to board rooms. Awards come in various shapes and sizes like trophies, cups, plaques, pin medals and statuettes. One of the popular styles is the crystal trophies as well as the metal trophies. While cups and medals are usually seen in sports, a crystal trophy adds meaning to intellectual performances.

Crystal trophies speak elegance. Executive style awards are perfect to honor an employee or appreciate a loyal client. They come in various colors. Blue and green are mostly preferred. There are many variations and styles like a jaded and jeweled crystal trophy which has carved edges and is shaped like gems. The crystal used is translucent in nature. They come in many shapes like rectangle, square, triangle,  spherical and also humanoid.

A crystal trophy has many features that you need to check. The most important part is the etching. The text is sand engraved and it should be in sync with the size of the trophy, neither too big nor too small. The size of the crystal trophies are mentioned in the catalogues. Usually they are around 7 inches in height to 10 inches in width. The cost of the trophy depends upon the size and the etchings. Engraving a text along with the company/team logo is also possible. And, this service usually comes for free. Another important part is the stand on which the trophy is placed. It is very essential because it keeps the crystal in place. A defective stand can make your trophy wobbly.

Just as there are variations in color, there are many types of stand too. Crystal trophies with wooded stands are mostly preferred because they do not erode with time; but, they too need to be maintained and kept away from moisture. You can personalize crystal trophies as you like. You can design your own shape and ask the online stores to construct it that way. You can customize existing designs and make moderations in cuts and edges, stands and colors adding uniqueness to the design.

Read the reviews of previous customers for a useful insight into the crystal trophy that you will purchase. A single crystal trophy costs more than when it is bought in a bulk. Dealers offer various discounts on bulk purchases. The more the number the greater is the discount. Once you order the trophies with your specified instructions, the online stores send you a detailed description of what the trophy would look like when completed. After you have approved the final design, they start manufacturing them. Crystal trophies are timeless and speak of the unfaltering achievement of the owner. They are a classy way to honor hard work and success.

Crystal trophies are stylish and suave. Gifting a crystal trophy is a nice gesture of showing your appreciation.
