What is the Gold/Silver Metal Cup-14"?

Item CMC333 is a trophy cup in zinc alloy, chosen for how well it takes a mark and how long that mark lasts. It measures 14". This is the gold colorway, one of 2 in the range.

Die casting captures far finer relief detail than stamping, so medals and heavier emblem pieces are cast rather than pressed. Plating then sets the finish. Gold, silver or bronze. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.

A cup is the most recognizable award form there is. It needs no explanation in a photograph. Artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess. The two together are why this item re-orders.

At this level the piece is doing relationship work, not advertising work. Reserve it for named recipients, key clients, top performers, long-service milestones, and personalize it individually. Concretely: $47.00 each at 1-11, $29.14 at 500+.

Artwork requirements

  • Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
  • 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.
  • Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.
  • Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.

Common uses

Championships and tournamentsA natural fit for championships and tournaments, which is one of the settings this trophy cup was specified for.
Annual perpetual awardsA natural fit for annual perpetual awards, which is one of the settings this trophy cup was specified for.
Recruiting and onboardingIncluded in offer packs and first-day kits, where the object is doing culture work from the very first hour.
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.
Sponsorship and partner thanksGiven to the people who funded or enabled the work, in a form they can keep visible.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.

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

Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events

Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Guests keep what they can use and discard what merely commemorates. An item that works on an ordinary Tuesday will outlive the event by years; one that only makes sense on the day will not survive the drive home. Executive tier. Treat the engraving as carefully as the invoice.

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. Die casting captures far finer relief detail than stamping, so medals and heavier emblem pieces are cast rather than pressed. Even at volume it holds $29.14, which tells you what tier this is.

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. Spend it where the relationship is worth more than the invoice.

4

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. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. At $47.00 before breaks this is relationship work, not advertising.

What do buyers ask about CMC333?

What does it actually cost at quantity?

The published ladder on CMC333 runs from $47.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $29.14 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 mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?

Yes. CMC333 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+.

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 CMC333 is 2.36 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.

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.

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 CMC333 runs from $47.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $29.14 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

Do you keep this item in stock?

Yes. The warehouse shows 1 of CMC333 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.

Can you work to a fixed in-hand date?

Yes, and it is the right way to brief us. Tell us the date the box has to be open rather than the date you want it shipped, and checkout works the schedule backwards from there. It refuses a date it cannot keep rather than accepting it and missing it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

What is the minimum order for CMC333?

There is no minimum beyond one piece on CMC333. 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 CMC333 runs from $47.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $29.14 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
