What is the 4 1/2" Gold Brass Torch?

A brass plaque, catalogued here as ZX307. The substrate was picked for decoration quality first and appearance second, which is the right order. It measures 4 1/2". This is the gold colorway.

Brass is the traditional engraving metal: dense, warm-toned and long-lived. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.

Wall-mounted recognition stays visible to everyone who walks past, not just the recipient. Rotary or laser engraving cuts a crisp permanent line that can be color-filled.

This reads as a considered gift, which means it rewards a named list and wastes its advantage on a table by the door. Concretely: $20.85 each at 1-11, $12.93 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 3 in x 3 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.

Rotary Engraving

A rotating cutter physically carves the surface. A deep V-cut line with genuine dimension.

Best for

Brass and aluminum plates, especially with color fill.

Color

Substrate color or color-filled.

Color Fill

Engraved or carved recesses are filled with pigment. A permanent engraved mark that reads in brand color rather than substrate color.

Best for

Metal and crystal where the logo must be recognisably on-brand.

Color

Matched to Pantone where the recess allows.

Artwork requirements

  • A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually 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.
  • If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
  • Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.

Common uses

Service awardsSpecified regularly for service awards. The imprint area at 3 in x 3 in is sized for exactly that job.
Donor recognitionBuilt for donor recognition. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Sponsor and partner recognitionWorks well for sponsor and partner recognition, where the plaque format does what a printed handout cannot.
Customer loyalty tiersA physical marker of status that an account dashboard cannot replicate.
Community and civic eventsLocal sponsorships and volunteer thanks, where visible presence matters more than volume.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Team and department awardsRecognizing a group without the cost or ceremony of individual crystal for every person.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.

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

Employee Recognition & Service Awards

Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. Consistency is what makes a recognition program credible. If a ten year award looks better this year than it did last year, everyone who got last year's version notices. Lock the specification and the supplier, and treat the item list as something you change deliberately rather than annually. The gesture is the product here. Spend the thought, not just the budget.

2

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. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. At $20.85 before breaks, name the recipients rather than filling a table.

3

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. An imprint area of 3 in x 3 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. This reads as a gift. Give it to people you chose, not people who walked past.

4

Government, Military & First Responders

This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Protocol governs the object. Placement of insignia, order of precedence on a plaque and the wording of a commendation are conventions rather than preferences, and getting them wrong is the one error this segment does not overlook. Worth personalising individually at this price; the response rate justifies it.

5

Faith & Community Organizations

Faith communities give to mark moments rather than to advertise. Baptisms, confirmations, ordinations, volunteer milestones and building dedications all call for keepsakes carrying a name and a date. Understated decoration outperforms bold branding almost every time in this segment. $20.85 before breaks puts this above hand-out territory. Use it that way.

What do buyers ask about ZX307?

How is this decorated?

We run laser engraving on ZX307 as standard. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved. We can also run Rotary Engraving and Color Fill on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on ZX307 is 3 in x 3 in. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.

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.

What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?

The personalization area on ZX307 is 3 in x 3 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.

Do you keep this item in stock?

Yes. The warehouse shows 295 of ZX307 in stock as of the last hourly sync. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

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.

What does it actually cost at quantity?

The published ladder on ZX307 runs from $20.85 a piece at 1-11 down to $12.93 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. 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.

Can I order more later and have them match?

Yes. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. Material batches can vary slightly on natural materials, which is worth knowing if color matching across orders is critical. The published ladder on ZX307 runs from $20.85 a piece at 1-11 down to $12.93 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

What is the minimum order for ZX307?

ZX307 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on ZX307 runs from $20.85 a piece at 1-11 down to $12.93 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on ZX307 is 3 in x 3 in.
