Description
An optical crystal tower award with a rounded, vase like silhouette, this piece is faceted down the sides and cut with one large flat sheared face that fills the front and holds the whole inscription. Hospitals, professional practices and long service programmes hand it over when the words matter more than the shape around them.
Hospitals, accountancy practices, engineering consultancies and member associations reach for it at partner admissions, at twenty five year service presentations, and at the retirement dinners where a long citation has to fit on the piece itself. Three heights run 8, 9.5 and 11 inches, each standing on its own flat bottom with no separate base underneath, so the whole object is one piece of glass. The sheared front takes a deep etched inscription up to 1.5 by 7.5 inches, or a full colour print up to 2.125 by 8.25 inches, which is a tall narrow field made for several lines of text. Each piece weighs 2.9 pounds and arrives in a black satin lined presentation box.
Buyers who want the same clear glass in a shape with no front or back sometimes weigh it against the Custom Sphere Globe, which is read from every angle instead of one. Both sit in the crystal awards range, so a firm can keep the tall piece for the individual citation and put the globe on a reception desk where visitors walk around it all day long.
Send the citation and the logo, approve the proof that comes back showing how the lines break on the sheared face, and five working days of production later it is ready to present.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the optical crystal tower award made of?
The optical crystal tower award is a single piece of clear optical crystal, faceted down the sides and cut flat across the front. There is no separate base and no metal fitting, so nothing on it can loosen over time. The rounded silhouette is what gives the piece its weight in the hand.
What sizes does the optical crystal tower award come in?
The optical crystal tower award is made at 8, 9.5 and 11 inches tall, with widths of 2.5, 2.75 and 3 inches. All three are narrow enough for a crowded shelf and tall enough to be picked out on it. The tallest gives the most room for a long citation.
Where does the engraving sit on the optical crystal tower award?
The optical crystal tower award carries its engraving on the large sheared face at the front, not on the back. Deep etch fields run up to 1.5 by 7.5 inches, and a full colour print reaches 2.125 by 8.25 inches. Send us the citation and we will show the line breaks on a proof.
How much does an optical crystal tower award cost in a small run?
The optical crystal tower award is priced on quantity, on which of the three heights you choose, and on the decoration method and setup. A short etched citation prepares faster than a full colour print with detailed artwork. Ask us for a written quote against the quantity you expect.
How is the piece packed for presentation?
The optical crystal tower award arrives in a black satin lined gift box, one piece to a carton. That means it can be handed over as it arrives, with no separate box to buy. Each one weighs 2.9 pounds, so a case of them is manageable by hand.
How long does production take once the citation is approved?
The optical crystal tower award ships 5 working days after the proof is approved. Approval starts the clock, so a partner admission or a retirement date is safest when the wording is signed off early. Tell us the date and we will say whether it holds.
Why choose a tall narrow shape for a long inscription?
The optical crystal tower award gives a tall narrow field on the front, which suits several short lines stacked above each other. A wide plaque forces long lines that are harder to read at arm length. Firms writing a full citation rather than a name and a date tend to prefer this shape.
