What is the Small Blue Marble Arch Acrylic with Black Base?
The Small Blue Marble Arch Acrylic with Black Base is what most buyers mean when they ask for a acrylic award that will not look cheap in six months. It measures 3" x 6". This is the blue colorway, one of 3 in the range.
Acrylic is roughly half the weight of glass and dramatically harder to break, which matters more than people expect. It survives shipping to a remote office, it survives a trade show crate, and it survives being knocked off a desk. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.
Acrylic takes full-color UV printing beautifully, so unlike crystal it can reproduce a logo in exact brand colors rather than as a frosted silhouette. Laser engraving gives the frosted look when that is preferred. Acrylic is the only award substrate that reproduces a full-color logo cleanly and survives being posted to a home address.
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: $45.75 each at 1-11, $28.37 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 2 in x 2 in.
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.
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
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.
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
Laser Cutting
The laser cuts entirely through the sheet to a custom outline. A shape cut to your logo or silhouette rather than a stock outline.
Acrylic awards and signage that should not look off-the-shelf.
Material color.
Artwork requirements
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- Send the file you have, even if it is imperfect. We will tell you honestly whether it will hold up and redraw it if it will not.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.

|---|---|
| Standard run | 3 to 5 business days once the proof is signed 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. 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. At this price the recipient list should fit on one page.
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. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Executive tier. Treat the engraving as carefully as the invoice.
Franchise & Multi-Location Brands
The hard problem in multi-location branding is consistency, not creativity. A single approved item list, locked artwork and a repeatable re-order path stop forty locations producing forty versions of the logo. Stocked programs with fixed pricing are what make that governable. Acrylic is the only award substrate that reproduces a full-color logo cleanly and survives being posted to a home address. Even at volume it holds $28.37, which tells you what tier this is.
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. Acrylic takes full-color UV printing beautifully, so unlike crystal it can reproduce a logo in exact brand colors rather than as a frosted silhouette. Laser engraving gives the frosted look when that is preferred. Spend it where the relationship is worth more than the invoice.
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. The acrylic award format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. At $45.75 before breaks this is relationship work, not advertising.
Technology, SaaS & Startups
Distributed teams have no office to carry the culture, so the objects have to. Shipping a considered kit to a home address is now a standard part of remote onboarding, and it is the rare marketing spend that shows up in retention numbers. Ship-safe materials matter more here than in any other segment. Reserve it for named recipients: key clients, top performers, long service.

Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote.

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.

What happens if something arrives damaged?

Can I order more later and have them match?
Re-orders reproduce rather than reinterpret. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. On natural materials the base itself can shift a little between batches, so tell us if an exact match matters.
