Bennett Awards is a sculpture design studio specializing in premium recognition awards, not a typical trophy shop. We combine over 50 years of fine art experience with cutting-edge design technology to create handcrafted works of art. Unlike mass-produced trophies and plaques, our custom awards and sculpture trophies are unique, artistic pieces that recipients will proudly display for years. We blend old-world artisanship with modern production techniques to deliver truly exceptional recognition awards.

Yes, we provide two main categories of high-end awards:

Custom Awards & Custom Trophies: Completely new designs tailored to your specific requirements, brand, and event. These are created from scratch based on your vision and needs.

Predesigned Sculpture Awards: A curated selection of unique, artistic awards in various designs, sizes, and materials that can be personalized with your branding, event details, and recipient information.

Bennett Awards uses a wide range of high-quality materials for custom awards, blending artistry with innovation. The main materials include:

White Metal (such as aluminum, pewter, zinc, and stainless steel)
Bronze
Crystal
3D Printed Nylon
Acrylic & Recycled Acrylic
Wood
CNC Milled Metals
Medallions (custom metal or predesigned options)
Plaques
Cups

Each material is selected based on your vision, brand, and budget, with options from from handcrafted bronze sculptures to sleek modern acrylic and crystal designs.

Here’s how the custom award design process works at Bennett Awards:

Exploration – We start by learning about your brand, goals, timeline, and budget. This phase includes initial 2D concept sketches based on your vision.

Ideation – We refine the concept into a detailed 3D rendering, making sure it’s both visually stunning and technically feasible.

Design Specification – Once approved, we create precise digital files and engineering schematics that guide production.

Engineering – Our team finalizes all technical aspects, preparing the award for manufacturing with your desired quantity, materials, and finishes.

Manufacturing – Skilled artisans and modern tech bring the design to life, resulting in a custom, handcrafted award that embodies your brand essence.

It’s a blend of creativity, precision, and collaboration - from idea to iconic.

Absolutely. Logo integration and brand customization are core aspects of our service. We can incorporate your company logo, brand colors, messaging, and visual identity into both custom designs and predesigned awards. Our design team ensures that branding elements are seamlessly integrated while maintaining the artistic integrity of the award.

To design your perfect custom award, we typically need:

Event or recognition program details

Preferred materials and size requirements

Brand guidelines (logos, colors, fonts)

Budget parameters

Timeline requirements

Any specific design elements or themes you want incorporated

Number of awards needed
