Description
A black base crystal award stands a clear optical crystal slab with an asymmetric slanted top on a glossy black base cut to the same angle. Executive committees, engineering firms and utilities hand it over at formal presentation ceremonies, retirement dinners and the completion of a build that ran for years.
The piece measures 3.75 by 11 inches, tall enough to read across a stage without needing a plinth under it. Deep etching goes on the back face across 3 by 5 inches, which holds a crest, a full name, a date and two or three lines of citation. A second etch position with colour fill can be added when a sponsor mark belongs on the black. Only one size is made, so a programme buying it settles on a single presentation piece. Utilities and construction groups hand it over at project completions. Engineering and defence firms use it for chief engineer and lifetime contribution honours. Boards keep it for retirements, where a single tall piece on a credenza does more than a framed page.
Buyers assembling a wider crystal awards programme often place it beside the custom sphere globe, which reads as a quiet desk marker rather than a ceremony prize. The slanted slab is what a chief executive hands over in front of a room; the globe is what sits by a keyboard for the next decade. Both take deep etching from the same file, so one artwork approval covers the pair.
Send the artwork and ask for a written quote with an etch proof before the crystal is cut; production runs five working days from your approval, which is room enough for a ceremony fixed months out.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a black base crystal award suit as a presentation piece?
The black base crystal award suits formal ceremonies where one person is called forward, so boards use it for retirements and lifetime contribution honours. Engineering and utility groups hand it over at project completions. The slanted cut gives it a direction that a plain rectangle lacks.
How big is the black base crystal award?
The black base crystal award measures 3.75 by 11 inches, slab and base together. One size only is made, which keeps a programme from having to choose a tier. At that height it reads clearly from the back of a room.
Where is the etching placed on a black base crystal award?
The black base crystal award is deep etched on the back face across 3 by 5 inches. Etching from behind means the frosted marks read through the clear body from the front, with a little depth to them. Send us vector line work and the citation stays sharp at small sizes.
Can a second etch position be added to the base?
The black base crystal award can take a second etch position with colour fill as an option. That suits a sponsor mark or a programme logo that should not share the main panel. Ask for it when the quote is prepared, since it is not included by default.
Which colours does this award come in?
The black base crystal award is made in clear and glossy black only, with no coloured crystal options. The contrast between the two is the whole design, so a third colour would work against it. Colour enters only through an optional etch fill.
How long is production once artwork has been approved?
The black base crystal award runs five working days in production from artwork approval, before transit. Work backwards from the ceremony date and leave room for shipping. Rush handling can be arranged when a date is brought forward.
What drives the cost of an order for these awards?
The black base crystal award is priced by quantity, the etch area used, whether a second position is added and whether the artwork setup is new. A repeat order from an approved file prepares faster. Ask for a written quote and each line is itemised.
Does the black base crystal award stand without a separate holder?
The black base crystal award is freestanding, since the slanted black base is part of the piece. No easel, riser or wall fixing is needed on a desk or a credenza. The base spreads the weight so the tall slab does not tip.
