1st Place Achievement Recognition Crystal Fountain Award*
Give someone the reward they deserve, and commend all their hard work with our Optic Crystal Fountain Award. Perfect as a big award for many special commemorative events, this gorgeous crystal award is shaped to look like the victorious spray of a fountain, caught at the top of its arc and held there. Whether the moment is a competition, a sporting tournament or a recognition event, the 1st Place Achievement Recognition Crystal Fountain Award lets the recipient know that all their hard work really has paid off.
At 8.25 inches tall it is a full-size award rather than a token, with enough height to be seen from the back of a banquet room and enough weight in the base to sit where it is put. Optic crystal is the reason the shape works: the fountain form gathers the light in the room and pushes it back out through the arc, so the piece reads as movement even standing still on a shelf.
Available with custom engraving, the Crystal Fountain Award carries up to 24 characters on each of six lines. That is room for the award title, the recipient's full name, the event, the date and a line of thanks underneath, all engraved in-house by HansonEllis. Six lines is the difference between a trophy that says Champion and one that says exactly what was won, by whom, and in what year, which is the part the recipient reads again years later.
Hand it over at the end of a season, a sales year or a career: first place in a tournament, top performer of the quarter, 25 years of service, coach of the year, volunteer of the year, the science fair, the retirement dinner, the anniversary of a company that would rather thank people than send a card. Encourage the continuing flow of ideas and competitive spirit, and let the recipient know their accomplishments will always be remembered.
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and have the award in hand well before the ceremony.

Which one should I choose
The question is how long the recognition is meant to last after the applause stops.
| 1st Place Achievement Recognition Crystal Fountain Award | Choose it when the moment deserves a full-size crystal award with up to six engraved lines naming the win, the winner and the year. |
|---|---|
| A printed certificate or plaque | Choose it when the recognition is routine, goes into a folder, and does not need to stand on a desk. |
| The same award ordered with no personalization | Choose it when the award is being bought ahead of time and the recipient is not decided yet. |
For a tournament, a service milestone or an annual recognition night, the engraved Crystal Fountain Award wins because the detail on those six lines is what the recipient rereads years later.
