What is the Cherry Finish Perpetual Plaque with 12 Black Plates on a Brushed Gold Metal Back?
Catalogued as P4277, this plaque sits in the part of the range that gets re-ordered rather than tried once. It measures 12" x 15". This is the black colorway, one of 2 in the range.
Worth knowing before you order: 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..
Laser engraving burns directly into the grain for a permanent mark. Expect slight tonal variation between pieces. Wall-mounted recognition stays visible to everyone who walks past, not just the recipient.
Reserved for the occasion that actually earns it. One or two a year, presented properly, and on display for a decade after. Concretely: $204.00 each at 1-11, $126.48 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
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- Nothing is produced before you approve a proof in writing. That is a hard rule, not a courtesy.
- Do not spend a week hunting for the perfect file. Send what exists and we will tell you what is usable.
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.
Production schedule
| Proof to you | Within one business day of usable artwork arriving |
|---|---|
| Production, standard | 3 to 5 business days, counted from your approval |
| Production, rush | quoted per job, confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Transit by ground | 1 to 5 business days, by distance from the shipping point |
Common uses
Service awardsService awards is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Donor recognitionA natural fit for donor recognition, which is one of the settings this plaque was specified for.
Sponsor and partner recognitionA natural fit for sponsor and partner recognition, which is one of the settings this plaque was specified for.
Community and civic eventsLocal sponsorships and volunteer thanks, where visible presence matters more than volume.
Customer loyalty tiersA physical marker of status that an account dashboard cannot replicate.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Booth and trade show handoutsThe item that gives someone a reason to stop walking, and a reason to remember which booth it came from.
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
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. Flagship recognition. One or two of these, not a programme.
2
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. This is the award people photograph. Budget it as a single line.
3
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. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. $204.00 before breaks: reserved for the moment that warrants it.
4
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. Wall-mounted recognition stays visible to everyone who walks past, not just the recipient. Bought for the one occasion a year that genuinely earns it.
5
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. Laser engraving burns directly into the grain for a permanent mark. Expect slight tonal variation between pieces. A centrepiece, not a run. Expect it on display for a decade.
6
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. The plaque format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. The piece the room looks at. Price it as an event cost, not merchandise.

What do buyers ask about P4277?
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.
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. P4277 sells from a single unit at $204.00, 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.
What does it actually cost at quantity?
Most orders land near 48-95, which prices at $163.20 a piece. The published ladder on P4277 runs from $204.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $126.48 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes. P4277 runs in 2 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+.
How should this be cared for?
Dust with a dry cloth. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight. P4277 measures 12" x 15" 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.
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.
What is the minimum order for P4277?
P4277 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on P4277 runs from $204.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $126.48 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on P4277 is 10 in x 10 in.

- Ground freight is free from 12 pieces, 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 9% 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.
