What is the Baseball/Softball Embrace Resin, 5 1/2"?
Item EMB101 is a trophy in resin, chosen for how well it takes a mark and how long that mark lasts. It measures 5 1/2".
Casting is what allows shapes, figures, sport-specific sculpts, dimensional forms, that simply cannot be cut from crystal or metal at a comparable price. It is the reason resin dominates youth sport and participation awards. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.
Trophies photograph well, that matters when the award is going to be posted before it is shelved. On this substrate specifically: decoration is applied to an engraving plate or a printed plate fitted to the base, not to the sculpt itself.
The middle of the range, and the part of it that does the most work. Good enough that people keep it, cheap enough that you can cover an entire department. Concretely: $16.25 each at 1-11, $10.07 at 500+.

Artwork requirements
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
- If the logo is only available as a bitmap, we need it at 300 dpi or better at final size, ideally on a transparent background.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Outline your fonts before sending. It removes the most common cause of a proof coming back wrong.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.

Common uses
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.
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. Trophies photograph well, that matters when the award is going to be posted before it is shelved. Roughly 38% comes off between one piece and a full run.
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. Decoration is applied to an engraving plate or a printed plate fitted to the base, not to the sculpt itself. At $16.25 before breaks this is the tier most programmes should live in.
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. The trophy format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Good enough to be kept, affordable enough to order in real quantity.
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. This is the sweet spot: real perceived value without a procurement conversation.

What do buyers ask about EMB101?
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. EMB101 sells from a single unit at $16.25, 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.
What does it actually cost at quantity?
The published ladder on EMB101 runs from $16.25 a piece at 1-11 down to $10.07 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.
How is this decorated?
Laser Engraving (plate) is the primary method on EMB101. The engraving plate is lasered, then fitted to the award. A permanent engraved plate on a cast body. We can also run UV Printing (plate) and Sublimated Plate on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on EMB101 is 1.8 in x 2.75 in.
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.
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.
What happens if something arrives damaged?
We replace damaged pieces. Send a photograph and the item number within 10 days of delivery and we handle the carrier claim ourselves. If the box arrives visibly damaged, write that on the freight bill before signing. The replacement runs from the artwork you already approved, so it matches the rest of the order.
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 is the minimum order for EMB101?
EMB101 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on EMB101 runs from $16.25 a piece at 1-11 down to $10.07 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on EMB101 is 1.8 in x 2.75 in.
