What are personalized glass awards?
Personalized glass awards are made using ready-to-go, prefab glass “blanks” that are engraved with your unique text and artwork to create one of a kind glass awards. Ordering personalized glass awards can reduce lead times by up to 80%, and reduce costs by as much as 50% when compared to ordering custom glass awards.
Our catalog includes timeless and popular award styles that can be personalized for any occasion. We carry these on hand and ready to go until your order arrives. Then make them special for you through custom graphic design and elegant sandblast engraving. This way, more of your money goes into the quality and craftsmanship of your glass awards, and less into developing novel custom award designs and prototypes.
80% of the glass awards we produce are personalized (as opposed to customized) because they offer great value. By personalizing prefab awards with great custom design and engraving, we provide an efficient, streamlined, and cost effective approach to producing awesome personalized glass awards, every time!

Where to order glass awards online?
As many trophy stores and retail showrooms are closed indefinitely due to the pandemic, it makes sense to order your glass trophies online. Forget searching for a "trophy place near me" because it doesn’t matter if you’re in Toronto, Dallas, Edmonton, Detroit, Bellingham, San Francisco or Calgary...online trophy shops like Eclipse Awards offer a web catalog of unique glass awards and plaques that you can order from your desk, including personalization, and delivered within 2 weeks!
*Pro-tip: To ensure higher quality and faster lead times, choose a glass awards supplier that does all of their design and sandblast engraving in-house.
How much do glass awards cost?
Glass awards cost between $60 to $250 each, with options at every price point. Cost is mostly determined by size, shape, and quality of glass. Eclipse Awards offers glass awards at fixed, all-in prices that include design, artwork proofs, personalization and engraving. With no setup charges or hidden fees, you can order with confidence knowing the price you see is the price you will pay!
Custom glass awards with uniquely designed shapes and sizes can be produced upon request. For customized glass awards, other factors that may affect cost are:
-
number of awards needed
-
shape, size and color requirements
-
type of marking used for personalization (sandblast engraving or UV printing)
-
the style of presentation box, if needed
-
your budget and the lead time you have available
Pro tip! Ordering “off-the-shelf” from our catalog is the fastest and most cost effective way to produce personalized glass recognition awards because much of the award design has already been done. We simply create custom artwork for you and then sandblast engrave it to produce beautiful glass awards, branded and personalized exactly as you wish.
As well, consider these points before ordering fully customized glass awards:
-
Some companies may charge a design fee to design your custom award, so that is important to clarify before your project gets underway.
-
Developing new custom award designs may require investing in molds and/or prototypes to ensure the final pieces will be stable and well balanced, which can add to the overall cost and timeline.
-
Your custom glass awards will be one of a kind, so you may want to order a few extra pieces to have on hand, in case you ever need more on short notice.
Glass awards can be awesome and impressive without breaking the bank, as long as you can have some flexibility in your vision.
