The KABOOM Award


I was approached at a trade show by a customer looking for an unusual way of rewarding employees who demonstrated the guts and ingenuity to shake up traditional ways of doing things and try something new. Her thought was a crystal hand grenade.

I quickly found out that they are few and far between. Finally, I went right to the top crystal design firm in the country, Innocast Execuline, and worked directly with the company's President to design what has come to be known as the "KABOOM" award. My customer is thrilled and so are the surprised recipients!

Each grenade is hand-formed from molten crystal, then mounted on a black marble base. The personalized brass plate is added to include the recipient's name and date of presentation.
