Each October the world turns its attention to Recognition and Celebration.
From prestigious international prizes to workplace appreciation days, October reminds us of the power of honoring excellence, leadership, and service. At Atlanta's Specialty Engraving. we believe every achievement — big or small — deserves to be recognized with awards as timeless as the moment itself.
Honoring Excellence in Every Field
October is famous for the announcement of the Nobel Prizes, recognizing groundbreaking achievements in science, literature, and peace. While most of us won’t be Nobel laureates, every business, school, and organization has its own heroes — those who innovate, lead, and inspire. Custom crystal, art glass, or acrylic awards are a meaningful way to shine a spotlight on the achievers in your circle.
World Teachers’ Day – October 5
Teachers shape our future every single day. World Teachers’ Day is a perfect opportunity to honor their dedication with elegant plaques, glass desk awards, or personalized gifts. Recognition shows them their work is valued — and gives them a token of appreciation they’ll treasure for years.
National Customer Service Week – First Week of October
Front-line employees are often the face of your business. This weeklong celebration is an ideal time to say “thank you” with personalized awards. A simple engraved gift or custom acrylic trophy can boost morale and reinforce your company’s culture of appreciation.
Boss’s Day – October 16
Leadership deserves recognition, too. Boss’s Day is the perfect moment for employees to acknowledge managers who inspire, guide, and support. Our executive plaques, crystal awards, and art glass pieces make sophisticated and memorable gifts for leaders at every level.
United Nations Day – October 24
The UN celebrates cooperation, peace, and progress worldwide. It’s a reminder that recognition isn’t just for individuals — it can also honor teamwork, unity, and service. Many organizations take inspiration from global milestones like this to create their own awards for community service or leadership.
Recognition Beyond the Calendar
Whether it’s Nobel Prize season, Customer Service Week, or simply a well-earned milestone at work, recognition is never out of season. Specialty Engraving has been Atlanta’s trusted source for awards, plaques, and trophies since 1958. We help you honor achievement with elegance, style, and fast turnaround — from local pickup in Atlanta and Suwanee to nationwide shipping.
