What is the 11 3/4" x 7" Rectangle Slate Decor with Hanger String?
A working award. Natural slate with a riven face and a rough, unfinished edge. It measures 11 3/4" x 7".
Every piece of slate is geologically unique: thickness, tone and surface texture all vary. Buyers who want uniformity should choose glass; buyers who want each piece to feel individual choose slate for exactly this reason.
A physical award outlasts every digital form of recognition an organization can hand out. Laser engraving lifts a bright, chalk-white mark out of the dark stone. The contrast is extremely strong and needs no ink. The two together are why this item re-orders.
This reads as a considered gift, which means it rewards a named list and wastes its advantage on a table by the door. Concretely: $20.75 each at 1-11, $12.87 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 5 in x 5 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Best for
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Color
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
Artwork requirements
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Send the file you have, even if it is imperfect. We will tell you honestly whether it will hold up and redraw it if it will not.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- Do not spend a week hunting for the perfect file. Send what exists and we will tell you what is usable.

Common uses
Recognition programsSpecified regularly for recognition programs. The imprint area at 5 in x 5 in is sized for exactly that job.
Annual awardsA natural fit for annual awards, which is one of the settings this award was specified for.
Milestone markingA natural fit for milestone marking, which is one of the settings this award was specified for.
Safety and quality milestonesMarking a record that took every person on the floor to achieve, with something they can point at.
Client thank-you programsSent after a renewal, a referral or a project close, when the relationship is warm and the gesture will land.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Internal contests and incentivesA tangible prize outperforms a gift card for exactly the reason you would expect. It stays on the desk.
Remote team welcome kitsShipped to a home address, which for a distributed team is the only physical touch the company gets.
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
1
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. A gift that lands on a client desk and stays there keeps working long after the meeting that prompted it. That argues for fewer, better pieces rather than a large volume of disposables, and for decoration that will still look intentional in two years. Every piece of slate is geologically unique: thickness, tone and surface texture all vary. At $20.75 before breaks, name the recipients rather than filling a table.
2
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Departments buy separately even when the brand is shared, which is how a university ends up with nine versions of its own crest. A single approved item list with locked artwork solves more than any individual purchasing decision will. This reads as a gift. Give it to people you chose, not people who walked past.
3
Nonprofit & Fundraising
Every pound spent on a donor gift is a pound not spent on the mission, so the gift has to earn it. Volunteer recognition is where the money works hardest. Volunteers give time that would otherwise cost you wages, and the marginal cost of thanking them properly is trivial against what their continued involvement is worth. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. Worth personalising individually at this price; the response rate justifies it.
4
Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs
Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. Participation medals for the field, distinct pieces for placegetters, and something with real presence for the overall champion. Production timing is usually the binding constraint, so lock artwork well before the event rather than after the results are known. An imprint area of 5 in x 5 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. $20.75 before breaks puts this above hand-out territory. Use it that way.
5
Employee Recognition & Service Awards
Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. The presentation matters as much as the piece. An award handed over in a hallway is worth a fraction of the same award presented in front of the team, which means the object should be specified for the moment it will be photographed in, not the shelf it ends on. Reserve this for the shortlist and the response changes noticeably.

What do buyers ask about SLT031?
What happens if something arrives damaged?
Tell us within 10 days of delivery and we replace it. Note any damage on the freight bill before you sign for it, because that is what the carrier claim turns on. Resolving it with the carrier is our job, not yours. The replacement runs from the artwork you already approved, so it matches the rest of the order.
Is there a setup charge?
There is no setup charge, ever. Art preparation, machine setup and the proof are part of the price on this page. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
How should this be cared for?
Wipe with a damp cloth. Oil lightly to restore depth of color. SLT031 measures 11 3/4" x 7" and is made of slate. Every piece of slate is geologically unique: thickness, tone and surface texture all vary. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file.
Can you work to a fixed in-hand date?
Yes. Give us the in-hand date and checkout tells you immediately whether standard production makes it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on SLT031 runs from $20.75 a piece at 1-11 down to $12.87 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
Can I order more later and have them match?
Re-orders reproduce rather than reinterpret. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. On natural materials the base itself can shift a little between batches, so tell us if an exact match matters. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
How long does production take?
Door to door at standard speed: a day for the proof, 3 to 5 business days in production, then 1 to 5 business days in transit. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What is the minimum order for SLT031?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on SLT031. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on SLT031 runs from $20.75 a piece at 1-11 down to $12.87 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

- Ground freight is free from 12 pieces, which is where this order passes $250.00 of merchandise.
- The personalization area is 5 in by 5 in. Engraving is charged on the share your artwork actually covers, so a smaller logo costs less. Place yours on the product above and the price updates as you size it.
- At 50 pieces this costs less than 59% of the 3,730 other priced items in Awards & Recognition.
- The table starts at 12 because below that the engraving setup costs more than the goods, and we will not guess at a price there. Ask us and we will quote a smaller run from your artwork.
- Setup is free at every quantity, including 12.
