What is the Small Diamond Crystal on Black & Clear Round Base?
This crystal award is made from full-lead crystal with high refractive brilliance and hand-finished edges. It measures 8 1/4". This is the black colorway, one of 2 in the range.
Worth knowing before you order: lead content increases the refractive index, which is the technical reason lead crystal throws more light and looks noticeably more brilliant under display lighting than ordinary glass. It also adds weight, which is a large part of why crystal reads as a premium award.
Sand carving produces the deepest, most tactile mark. Laser engraving is faster and better suited to fine text and small logos. Crystal is the accepted visual shorthand for "this one mattered", and that is why it remains the default for flagship recognition.
This is a flagship piece. It is bought for the one or two moments a year that genuinely warrant it, and it is expected to be on display for years afterwards. Concretely: $227.00 each at 1-11, $140.74 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 2.85 in x 3.71 in.
Sand Carving
Abrasive is blasted through a cut mask to cut into the surface of the glass or crystal. A deep, frosted, dimensional mark you can feel with a fingertip.
Crystal and glass awards where depth and presence matter more than color.
Frosted white, optionally color-filled.
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.
Color Fill
Engraved or carved recesses are filled with pigment. A permanent engraved mark that reads in brand color rather than substrate color.
Metal and crystal where the logo must be recognisably on-brand.
Matched to Pantone where the recess allows.
Artwork requirements
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
- 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.
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.
Production schedule
| Digital proof | Same or next business day |
|---|---|
| Standard run | 3 to 5 business days once the proof is signed off |
| Rush run | quoted per job once the proof is signed off, with the date confirmed in writing |
| Delivery | 1 to 5 business days on the ground network |
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.
Technology, SaaS & Startups
Distributed teams have no office to carry the culture, so the objects have to. Company swag competes with genuinely good consumer products for the same desk space, and it usually loses. The piece has to be something the recipient would plausibly have bought, or it becomes a donation to a charity shop. Sand carving produces the deepest, most tactile mark. Laser engraving is faster and better suited to fine text and small logos. $227.00 before breaks: reserved for the moment that warrants it.
Employee Recognition & Service Awards
Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. If you are marking five or ten years of someone's working life, the piece has to carry weight. Literally and otherwise. Personalization with the individual's name is what converts a company gift into a personal keepsake, and it is the single highest-leverage decision in a recognition program. The crystal award format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Bought for the one occasion a year that genuinely earns it.
Financial Services, Insurance & Legal
Professional services sell trust, and the gift has to look like the invoice. Compliance shapes the purchase more than taste does. Many institutions cap the value of a client gift and require it to be logged, which pushes this segment toward pieces that read as considered rather than expensive. A centrepiece, not a run. Expect it on display for a decade.
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. Lead content increases the refractive index, which is the technical reason lead crystal throws more light and looks noticeably more brilliant under display lighting than ordinary glass. The piece the room looks at. Price it as an event cost, not merchandise.
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Challenge coins, unit recognition, retirement and commendation pieces all carry established conventions. Sourcing compliance and documented lead times usually matter as much as the item itself. This is the one people stand next to in the photograph.

What do buyers ask about CRY19005BKS?
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 53 of CRY19005BKS 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.
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.
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 CRY19005BKS runs from $227.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $140.74 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
What does it actually cost at quantity?
Most orders land near 48-95, which prices at $181.60 a piece. The published ladder on CRY19005BKS runs from $227.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $140.74 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.
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?
Hand wash only with a soft cloth. Never dishwasher. CRY19005BKS measures 8 1/4" and is made of crystal. Lead content increases the refractive index, which is the technical reason lead crystal throws more light and looks noticeably more brilliant under display lighting than ordinary glass.
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 CRY19005BKS?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on CRY19005BKS. 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 CRY19005BKS runs from $227.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $140.74 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
