PERSONALIZATIONS

SAND ETCHING
We offer free etching on a single surface area on all our awards, using state-of-the art sandblasting equipment, where micro-abrasive chips carve your custom art onto the crystal, to show a rich and detailed impression, for an elegant and more precise look than laser engraving. See Artwork Info section for more details.

We offer color-fill etched art for an additional charge of $10 per piece. See Artwork Info for details.

Allow extra time for production during peak season of October thru February. We have quality control checkpoints in the production process to create quality products. Due to the nature of sandblasting deep etching process, slight variations may occur from item to item.
