Small Crystal Apple Achievement Award
If there is someone who is truly the apple of your eye, show them how much they mean by giving them one of our Small Crystal Apples. This lovely award is made of solid crystal and functions as a paperweight. The apple can be engraved with a short message or name to make it truly special for someone in your life. Give the Small Crystal Apple to a favorite teacher or mentor to let them see how much you care.
At 3.1"D x 3.4"H it is deliberately desk-sized. It fits beside a monitor, on a bookshelf or on the corner of a teacher's desk without asking for a shelf of its own, and it has the weight that makes a person pick it up. Light moves through solid crystal in a way printed certificates never manage, so the engraving catches differently in the morning than at four in the afternoon.
The Small Crystal Apple makes a beautiful corporate gift. Have your company name engraved on the apple and present it as an achievement award to top producers in your organization. Or surprise an employee by giving them the Small Crystal Apple in recognition of their recent promotion. Coworkers entering retirement will love having a keepsake from their place of employment, and our Small Crystal Apple will touch their heart to the core.
The engraving is done in-house by HansonEllis, which has been personalizing gifts since 1999. The front side takes up to three lines of twelve characters, room enough for a name and a year, a thank-you, or a title someone earned. A back side engraving is offered as well, so the message the room sees and the message meant for one person can sit on opposite faces of the same apple.
Crystal collections are beautiful displayed in homes and businesses. Add our lovely Small Crystal Apple to your collection and let it sparkle with the rest of your pieces. The Small Crystal Apple looks stunning among other fine pieces of art, and the engraving will set it apart from the rest. Keep one of our Small Crystal Apples on your desk to organize your papers and brighten your day. And don't forget just one Small Crystal Apple a day will also help keep the doctor away!
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and give someone a thank-you that stays on the desk.

Which one should I choose
Buyers shopping crystal apples are usually deciding how much presence the piece needs on the recipient's desk.
| Small Crystal Apple Achievement Award | Choose it when the gift is personal and the recipient has a working desk: 3.1"D x 3.4"H, solid crystal, doubles as a paperweight, engraved front and back. |
|---|---|
| A larger crystal apple award | Choose it when the piece is handed over at a podium and needs to read from a distance, or when the inscription runs long. |
| A printed certificate or card | Choose it only when the thank-you is meant to be filed away; it will not sit on a desk holding papers down five years later. |
For a teacher, a mentor or a promotion, the Small Crystal Apple Achievement Award hits the right scale: substantial in the hand, modest on the desk, and engraved with something worth rereading.

Questions shoppers ask about the Small Crystal Apple Achievement Award
How big is the Small Crystal Apple Achievement Award?
It is 3.1"D x 3.4"H, a desk-sized piece rather than a large display award. It sits comfortably beside a monitor or on a shelf.
What is it made of?
Solid crystal. The weight is what lets it work as a paperweight as well as an award.
Is it really usable as a paperweight?
Yes. The description is explicit that it functions as a paperweight, so it can keep papers in order on a desk rather than only being displayed.
How much text can be engraved on it?
The front side personalization takes up to 3 lines of 12 characters each, counting spaces and punctuation, which is 36 characters in total.
Can both sides of the apple be engraved?
Yes. A front side personalization and a back side personalization are both offered, so a company name can go on one face and a personal message on the other.
Who does the engraving?
HansonEllis engraves it in-house. The company has been personalizing gifts since 1999, so the work is not sent out to a third party.
Can we engrave a company logo on the crystal apple?
Yes, by custom order. Email your logo as a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]. A logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be engraved.
Can each apple in an order have a different name?
Yes. Order the quantity you need, then email your list of names to [email protected] after ordering so it can be matched to your order.
Can I see a proof before the apple is engraved?
Yes. Proofs are optional and available on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and a proof adds extra days to production. Changes after a proof has been sent carry a $40 minimum updating fee, so check your text carefully before ordering. Ask in the order notes or call Customer Support at 310-878-9429.
Is there a minimum order for crystal apple awards?
No. Order a single apple for one teacher or one for every award winner at a banquet. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
How long does it take to arrive?
Standard production is 5 to 10 business days, plus 2 to 5 days US shipping. Rush production is 3 to 5 days and expedite is 1 to 3 days, which matters when an awards night is close.
Can I ship one internationally, and can I return it?
International shipping is by request; the cart calculates US shipping only and international orders cannot be rushed, so email [email protected]. Engraved apples are made to order and final sale unless defective; an unengraved apple can be returned within 14 days.
