Crystal Cube Block Paper Weight Achievement Award
The Crystal Cube makes an excellent addition to any crystal collection. Its unique design and eye-catching appeal will make it the centerpiece to all of the other items, and because it is a true cube, approximately 2 inches on every side, it sits square and steady wherever it is put down. It holds paper still on a desk, it fits in a palm, and it throws light from a window across the room. Now your friend can delight in the playfulness of the sparkling crystal at home and on the go.
These amazing Crystal Cubes will make anyone feel regal. Engrave the date of your student's graduation on the front and present it to them when they reach that milestone. Have one engraved with the name and birth date of each child and let them treasure it as a family keepsake for years to come. That is the quiet advantage of a cube: they line up. A row of them along a shelf, one per child, one per year, one per milestone, reads as a set rather than a collection of odds and ends. There are a thousand uses for this amazing gift, which can also be found in the crystal gifts and awards page.
HansonEllis etches your wording into the crystal in-house and has been personalizing gifts since 1999. You have up to 16 characters on each of two lines, which holds a name and a date, a title and a year, or a short line of thanks. The etching sits inside the clear block and catches the light from whichever face you turn toward you.
On a desk it is a paperweight. On a stage it is an award. On a bookshelf at home it is the year somebody graduated, the day somebody was born, or the season a team finally won.
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and give someone something with weight.

Which one should I choose
Crystal keepsakes differ mainly in shape, and shape decides where the piece ends up living.
| Crystal Cube Block Paper Weight Achievement Award | Choose it when the piece has to work on a desk and in a set: six flat faces, about two inches, steady enough to hold papers and uniform enough to line up one per child or per year. |
|---|---|
| A sculpted shape from the crystal gifts and awards page | Choose it when the shape itself should say something about the occasion, and when the award will be displayed on its own rather than in a row. |
| A printed certificate or plaque | Choose it when the wording is long. It says more, but it goes on a wall or into a file rather than staying in someone's hand. |
For an award that keeps being used after the ceremony is over, the crystal cube is the one that earns its place on the desk.
