What is the 15 3/4" Silver/Gold Completed Metal Cup with Black Marble Base?
Item CMC961 is a trophy cup in marble, chosen for how well it takes a mark and how long that mark lasts. It measures 15 3/4". This is the silver colorway, one of 3 in the range.
In practice: marble brings weight and permanence. As with slate, veining varies from piece to piece, so no two awards are identical.
A cup is the most recognizable award form there is. It needs no explanation in a photograph. Laser engraving and sand carving both cut cleanly into the stone for a permanent mark. The two together are why this item re-orders.
Flagship recognition. The cost only makes sense against a milestone big enough that people will remember where they were standing. Concretely: $228.00 each at 1-11, $141.36 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 1.2 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.
Sand Carving
Abrasive is blasted through a cut mask to cut into the surface of the glass or crystal. A deep, frosted, dimensional mark you can feel with a fingertip.
Best for
Crystal and glass awards where depth and presence matter more than color.
Color
Frosted white, optionally color-filled.
Artwork requirements
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- Nothing is produced before you approve a proof in writing. That is a hard rule, not a courtesy.
- 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.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
Production schedule
| Artwork proof | 1 business day from receipt of usable art |
|---|---|
| Standard production | 3 to 5 business days after proof approval |
| Rush production | quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Ground transit | 1 to 5 business days depending on destination |
Common uses
Championships and tournamentsWorks well for championships and tournaments, where the trophy cup format does what a printed handout cannot.
Annual perpetual awardsBuilt for annual perpetual awards. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
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.
Remote team welcome kitsShipped to a home address, which for a distributed team is the only physical touch the company gets.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Internal contests and incentivesA tangible prize outperforms a gift card for exactly the reason you would expect. It stays on the desk.
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
Nonprofit & Fundraising
Every pound spent on a donor gift is a pound not spent on the mission, so the gift has to earn it. Recognition pieces for major donors and board members are the clearest win: they are relatively few, they are highly personal, and they materially affect renewal. For event merchandise, price the item to sell rather than to give. The trophy cup format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Flagship recognition. One or two of these, not a programme.
2
Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs
Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. Awards are read as a hierarchy whether or not you intended one. If the participation piece and the champion piece look similar, the champion feels short-changed, and that is remembered longer than the result. This is the award people photograph. Budget it as a single line.
3
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Student-facing items live rough. They go in backpacks, get left outdoors and are rarely cleaned, so durability matters more than finish. Faculty and donor gifting is the opposite problem and deserves an entirely separate specification. Marble brings weight and permanence. $228.00 before breaks: reserved for the moment that warrants it.
4
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Names, dates and short inscriptions turn an ordinary object into something kept for decades. Quantities are modest and lead times are unforgiving, which makes production scheduling the thing to get right. Bought for the one occasion a year that genuinely earns it.
How does ordering and turnaround work?

| Re-orders | Artwork kept on file so re-orders run fast and match |
| Shipping | Free ground freight above $250, and we can split a run across individual addresses |
What do buyers ask about CMC961?
How should this be cared for?
Wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid acidic cleaners, which etch marble. CMC961 measures 15 3/4" and is made of marble. Marble brings weight and permanence. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file.
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. CMC961 sells from a single unit at $228.00, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes. CMC961 runs in 3 colors and they combine for pricing, as long as the artwork does not change between them. 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+.
Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote. Card checkout ships one order to one address, so for a split run send the address list with a quote request and we confirm the freight for every destination in writing before you pay. The artwork is proofed once and applied across the whole run. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Yes, and nothing runs until you have signed it off. Read it properly rather than skimming, because the approved proof is the specification we produce against. 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?
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What artwork do you need from me?
Send vector if it exists, raster at 300 dpi if it does not, and whatever you have if neither. The personalization area on CMC961 is 1.2 in x 5 in, and we redraw or re-proportion anything that will not survive it. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.
What is the minimum order for CMC961?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on CMC961. 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 CMC961 runs from $228.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $141.36 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

- Ground freight is free from 1 piece, which is where this order passes $250.00 of merchandise.
- The personalization area is 1.2 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 7% of the 3,730 other priced items in Awards & Recognition. It sits at the dearer end of that range, which is usually the material rather than the margin.
- Setup is free at every quantity, including 1.
