What is a star crystal paperweight and who is it given to?

A star crystal paperweight is a five-pointed slab of optical crystal that sits on a desk and carries an etched name or logo. This one has a flat pentagon plateau in the center and arms that slope down to each tip. Companies give it for sales performance, safety records, and employee of the year programs.

What size is this star crystal paperweight and what does it weigh?

The star crystal paperweight measures 4 inches across, 4 inches deep, and 0.75 inch thick, and it weighs 0.4 pound. Each piece ships in its own box measuring 6.25 by 6 by 2 inches. The flat underside keeps it steady on a desk.

How is a star crystal paperweight decorated with a name and logo?

Deep etching is the decoration method for this star crystal paperweight, cut into the underside within a 1.5 by 1.5 inch area. The etched mark reads up through the flat pentagon center. Vector artwork etches cleanest, because deep etch reproduces line work and solid shapes rather than photographic gradients. A name, a date, and a logo fit together in that area when the artwork is laid out as one block.

Which awards programs use a five-point crystal star most often?

A star crystal paperweight goes out most often for sales recognition, President's Club trips, safety milestones, and volunteer of the year honors. Schools order them for coach and teacher awards. Nonprofits use them for board and donor recognition at annual dinners.

How long does production take and what is the minimum order?

Production on this star crystal paperweight takes 5 working days from artwork approval, and the minimum order is one piece. Shipping transit time is separate from production time. Tell us your event date and we will confirm the schedule works before you order.

How should the crystal be cleaned so the etching stays sharp?

Clean this star crystal paperweight with a soft dry cloth to lift dust and fingerprints from the polished faces. Use glass cleaner on the cloth, not sprayed straight onto the piece, when a smudge will not lift. Deep etching is cut below the surface, so cleaning will not fade it. Skip abrasive pads, which dull the polish along the sloping arms.

What determines the cost of a custom crystal star award order?

Cost on a star crystal paperweight depends on quantity, the size of the etch, and how many pieces carry different names. Individual personalization on each piece is quoted differently from one repeated logo. Larger runs bring the unit cost down. Send your quantity and artwork for an exact quote.

Description

A flat pentagon plateau sits at the center of this star crystal paperweight, so the recipient name and date land on a level surface instead of fighting the slope of the five arms. Built for sales teams and HR managers who run recognition programs, it names a top performer and holds down paper on the same desk.

At a quarterly sales meeting, a star reads as a win from across the room before anyone gets close enough to read the engraving, which is what you want in a stage handout. Deep etching cuts the name into the underside, so the mark reads up through the flat pentagon center and cannot scratch off when the piece slides around a desk. Use it for President's Club, safety milestones, or a volunteer award at a nonprofit dinner. Each arm slopes from the pentagon down to its tip, so light travels along the crystal and the whole star glows under office lighting rather than sitting flat and dull. Your logo etches alongside the name in the same square, so the two read as one mark rather than two.

Pair it with the slanted crystal star paperweight when one program needs two tiers, because the two share a star silhouette but not the same profile, so a shelf of both reads as a series rather than a repeat. One goes to the quarter winner and one to the year winner. If a star does not fit the occasion, the full custom paperweight range holds rounds, rectangles, and other desk shapes in the same clear crystal.

Send your artwork and request a quote, and each piece etches within 5 working days of your approval. The minimum order is one piece, so a single award for one person is a normal order.
