What is the Cherry Finish Grooved Perpetual Plaque with 12 Plates, 11 3/4" X 18 3/4"?
Cherry Finish Grooved Perpetual Plaque with 12 Plates, 11 3/4" X 18 3/4". A plaque in wood, specified for decoration and for daily use rather than for a display shelf. It measures 11 3/4" X 18 3/4".
Wood carries a warmth that metal and acrylic do not, and that is why it keeps showing up on service awards and retirement pieces where the message is personal rather than corporate.
Wall-mounted recognition stays visible to everyone who walks past, not just the recipient. Laser engraving burns directly into the grain for a permanent mark. Expect slight tonal variation between pieces. 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: $269.00 each at 1-11, $166.78 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 10 in x 10 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.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Best for
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Color
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- 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.

Common uses
Service awardsService awards is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Donor recognitionDonor recognition is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Sponsor and partner recognitionSpecified regularly for sponsor and partner recognition. The imprint area at 10 in x 10 in is sized for exactly that job.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.
Client thank-you programsSent after a renewal, a referral or a project close, when the relationship is warm and the gesture will land.
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
Faith & Community Organizations
Faith communities give to mark moments rather than to advertise. Congregations buy in small quantities across many occasions rather than in one annual run. That makes minimum order quantity and re-order consistency more important than unit price for almost every purchase in this segment. Wood carries a warmth that metal and acrylic do not, and that is why it keeps showing up on service awards and retirement pieces where the message is personal rather than corporate.. Bought for the one occasion a year that genuinely earns it.
2
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. A centrepiece, not a run. Expect it on display for a decade.
3
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. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. The piece the room looks at. Price it as an event cost, not merchandise.
4
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. An imprint area of 10 in x 10 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. This is the one people stand next to in the photograph.
5
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Budgets are tight and quantities are large, which pushes toward mid-tier items ordered in volume. Alumni and donor gifting is the exception: that is where the spend per unit rises sharply, because the return is measured in gifts rather than impressions. Reserved for a milestone big enough to justify the line item on its own.
6
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Procurement documentation often takes longer than production. Quotes with fixed validity periods, documented lead times and clear line-item pricing move faster through approval than a better price presented informally. At $269.00 before breaks this is a once-a-year piece.

What do buyers ask about CPP24?
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.
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.
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.
How should this be cared for?
Dust with a dry cloth. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight. CPP24 measures 11 3/4" X 18 3/4" and is made of wood. Wood carries a warmth that metal and acrylic do not, and that is why it keeps showing up on service awards and retirement pieces where the message is personal rather than corporate.
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 CPP24 runs from $269.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $166.78 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
What does it actually cost at quantity?
The published ladder on CPP24 runs from $269.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $166.78 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 is the primary method on CPP24. A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved. We can also run UV Printing on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on CPP24 is 10 in x 10 in.
What is the minimum order for CPP24?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on CPP24. 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 CPP24 runs from $269.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $166.78 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 10 in by 10 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 5% 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.
