Ebony Optical Crystal Tower Award with Aqua Blue Inlay

An ebony optical crystal tower award is a vertical crystal trophy built from optical crystal, sliced and fused with an aqua blue inlay running through an ebony black body, cataloged under a dedicated Tower Awards category as well as the broader Crystal Awards group. The supplier lists it as a Corporate Awards piece under the Tower shape designation, distinct from the pointed obelisk or flat block shapes in the same collection. The straight-sided tower profile gives the piece a columnar, upright presence rather than tapering to a point. Companies use this style when they want a tall crystal centerpiece with a consistent width from base to top.

This ebony optical crystal tower award stands 12.5 inches tall on a 4 by 4 inch base, half an inch shorter than the related obelisk version of the same ebony and aqua design, which stands 13 inches tall on the same 4 by 4 inch footprint. Both versions share the identical construction method, slicing ebony crystal and fitting an aqua blue inlay before polishing the piece into one joined form, and both carry the same 3 inch by 1.5 inch base etch area with a colorfill included. The difference between the two comes down to the shape name and the slight height difference, since the tower keeps straight sides while the obelisk tapers toward the top. Buyers choosing between them are mainly deciding on the shape's silhouette and that half inch of extra height on the obelisk rather than a difference in decoration or material.

Personalization on the ebony optical crystal tower award sits on the base of the piece in a deep etch area measuring 3 inches by 1.5 inches, rather than on the tall ebony and aqua body itself. The deep etch decoration includes one color fill as part of the standard configuration, so the base etch ships as a finished, colorfilled mark rather than requiring a separate color fill order. Keeping the personalization on the base leaves the fused ebony and aqua crystal column free of any text, so the two-tone inlay stays the visual focus of the piece. Buyers wanting the engraved name higher up on the tower body itself would need a different decoration layout than what this piece offers.

No, this ebony optical crystal tower award ships in a single fixed size, 4 inches by 12.5 inches by 4 inches, with no smaller or larger version listed. Producing the piece involves slicing the ebony crystal body and fitting the aqua blue inlay before polishing it into one joined column, a more involved process than cutting a plain crystal block to several lengths. Buyers who need multiple sizes to build a tiered award structure, such as a champion and runner-up level, should look at a crystal award line that offers several size options instead. Because there is only one size, the base etching text is the only variable buyers need to plan for when placing an order.

Price for an ebony optical crystal tower award depends mainly on order quantity, since the piece ships in only one size and one color combination rather than multiple size tiers. The base configuration already includes the deep etch decoration and one color fill, so price would only change if a buyer requested a different decoration setup than the standard base etch. Because there is no size choice to factor in, quantity is the main lever that changes the total cost for a bulk recognition order. Buyers should confirm current pricing for their desired quantity before placing an order.

The fact record does not list a specific box style or gift packaging for this ebony optical crystal tower award, so packaging details are not confirmed for this item. Buyers planning an on-stage award presentation should confirm packaging options separately before the event. Because the piece is a single fused crystal column rather than a base and separate topper, it can be lifted and unpacked as one solid unit without aligning separate parts. Handling it by the wider base rather than the narrower top helps prevent tipping the tall column while unpacking.

An ebony optical crystal tower award should stand upright on a flat, stable surface since its height, 12.5 inches, gives it a higher center of gravity than a shorter crystal piece. Dusting the ebony and aqua crystal column with a soft, dry cloth keeps both crystal tones looking clear without scratching the polished surface. Because the base carries the only etched text, wiping the base gently with a slightly damp cloth removes fingerprints without risking the taller crystal column above it. Keeping the piece out of direct sunlight helps preserve the contrast between the black and aqua blue tones over years of display.
