Description
The optical crystal teardrop award is cast in one solid piece, then sheared and polished until a single flat face opens across the front. The back and sides stay rounded, fluted ridges run near the tip, and the whole form stands 9 inches tall and 4 inches wide without any separate base.
A teardrop reads as growth and as a drop of something valuable, which puts it in front of water utilities, oil and energy operators, laboratories, healthcare foundations and any fundraising campaign that talks about a goal filling up. Development offices hand one to a lead donor. Plant managers give one for a process improvement that cut waste. Environmental programmes use it for water conservation targets. The flat front carries a deep etch of 6 by 3 inches, and because the rounded back acts as a lens, etched artwork appears to float inside the crystal when viewed head on. Weighing just over 4 pounds, the piece needs no stand and will not slide on a polished desk.
Shoppers working through crystal awards often set this beside the Custom Sphere Globe, since both are single pieces of clear crystal with no base to lose. The sphere is symmetrical and wants a stand or a cradle. The teardrop stands on its own flat bottom and offers a clear front face, so etched copy has a straight edge to sit against. Budget and shelf depth usually decide it, and both pieces take the same etched artwork.
Send the artwork and PPI will return a proof laid out on the flat face at actual size, then build the piece within five working days of your sign off.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the optical crystal teardrop award made from?
The optical crystal teardrop award is a single casting of clear optical crystal with no separate base. The back and sides are left rounded while the front is sheared flat and polished. Fluted ridges sit near the pointed tip.
How large is the etch area on this award?
The optical crystal teardrop award takes a deep etch of 6 by 3 inches on its flat front face. That area holds a logo, a recipient name and two or three lines of citation. Copy etched there appears to sit inside the crystal because the rounded back works as a lens.
Which programmes suit an optical crystal teardrop award?
The optical crystal teardrop award fits water utilities, energy operators, laboratories and fundraising campaigns built around a goal. Development offices use it for lead donors and plant teams use it for waste reduction wins. The shape reads as growth rather than as a trophy.
Does the optical crystal teardrop award need a stand?
The optical crystal teardrop award stands on its own flat bottom and needs no stand or mount. Being a single casting, there is nothing to align or reassemble after transit. At around 4 pounds the piece stays put on a polished desk.
How long does an optical crystal teardrop award take to produce?
The optical crystal teardrop award is produced in five working days from artwork approval. A proof showing the layout on the flat face comes first. Transit time is separate from that production window.
What determines the price of a teardrop award order?
The optical crystal teardrop award is priced on the quantity ordered and the artwork prepared for the etch. Setup covers converting a logo into an etch file, and it does not repeat on a reorder of the same design. A written quote shows those lines before production begins.
Can the award be ordered in a colour other than clear?
The optical crystal teardrop award is made in clear optical crystal only. Colour comes from the etch itself, which reads white against the clear body. Buyers wanting a coloured base should look at a two piece crystal award instead.
