Our Handcrafted
Wood Capabilities

Wood awards represent the perfect harmony between natural beauty and artisan craftsmanship, creating recognition pieces that feel warm, authentic, and deeply personal.

Bennett Awards transforms premium hardwoods into custom recognition through meticulous handcrafting techniques perfected across decades of fine woodworking.

From rich walnut and cherry through lighter maple and oak, each wood species brings unique aesthetic qualities that enhance your award's visual impact and emotional connection.

  • Our skilled wood artisans hand-finish each piece, revealing natural grain beauty through careful sanding, staining, and finishing processes. This traditional craftsmanship ensures every wood award maintains its organic character while achieving the refined surfaces recognition deserves. No two pieces are identical—each carries subtle variations reflecting wood's natural beauty.

Our design team balances wood's organic qualities with precise shaping, creating awards that feel both natural and intentionally crafted.

Wood awards also accept metal medallions, engraved bands, and multi-material elements, enabling sophisticated hybrid recognition pieces combining wood's warmth with metallic accents or crystal details.

Handcrafted Wood Awards & Trophies FAQs

  • Every Bennett wood award begins as a work of art. Our awards are designed and handcrafted by sculptors and artisans who specialize in fine woodworking and modern fabrication. Unlike mass-produced plaques or trophies, each piece is custom-designed to tell a story — of achievement, innovation, or legacy — using natural materials that age beautifully over time.

  • We work with a curated selection of premium hardwoods, including walnut, maple, cherry, oak, and bamboo. Each species offers a distinct tone, grain, and texture, allowing us to match your brand aesthetic and design intent. Sustainable and reclaimed wood options are also available through our Bennett Remade program.

  • The typical production timeline for custom wood awards is 3–5 weeks, including design, proofing, and fabrication. Rush options are available for select projects. Every piece is handcrafted, so timelines depend on design complexity and quantity.
