What is the Small Blue Star Column Acrylic?
Small Blue Star Column Acrylic. A award in acrylic, specified for decoration and for daily use rather than for a display shelf. It measures 6 3/4". This is the blue colorway.
Worth knowing before you order: 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.
A physical award outlasts every digital form of recognition an organization can hand out. On this substrate specifically: 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.
This is relationship spend. Key accounts, long service, the people who genuinely moved a number: the list should be short and every piece should carry a name. Concretely: $66.00 each at 1-11, $40.92 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 1.8 in x 3.04 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.
Best for
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Color
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.
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.
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.
Best for
Acrylic awards and signage that should not look off-the-shelf.
Color
Material color.
Artwork requirements
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Outline your fonts before sending. It removes the most common cause of a proof coming back wrong.
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- 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
Recognition programsWorks well for recognition programs, where the award format does what a printed handout cannot.
Annual awardsSpecified regularly for annual awards. The imprint area at 1.8 in x 3.04 in is sized for exactly that job.
Milestone markingA natural fit for milestone marking, which is one of the settings this award was specified for.
Client thank-you programsSent after a renewal, a referral or a project close, when the relationship is warm and the gesture will land.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Sponsorship and partner thanksGiven to the people who funded or enabled the work, in a form they can keep visible.
Community and civic eventsLocal sponsorships and volunteer thanks, where visible presence matters more than volume.
Internal contests and incentivesA tangible prize outperforms a gift card for exactly the reason you would expect. It stays on the desk.
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
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. Give this to the handful of people who genuinely moved the number.
2
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.
3
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. The recipient is rarely the decision maker you are trying to reach, which is the part most programs get wrong. Choose something that will sit in a shared space rather than a drawer, and the gift starts working on people who were never on your list. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Executive tier. Treat the engraving as carefully as the invoice.
4
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. A physical award outlasts every digital form of recognition an organization can hand out. Even at volume it holds $40.92, which tells you what tier this is.
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. Donors read the gift as a statement about stewardship. Something visibly expensive can cost you more in confidence than it earns in goodwill, which is why restraint and a personal inscription usually outperform scale in this sector. 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.

What do buyers ask about SCM1BU?
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on SCM1BU is 1.8 in x 3.04 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
