Sample redesign by WebologyWORX · Concept for American Awards & Graphics, not the official website
Trophies, engraving and awards of all kinds — from one local shop that treats every name plate like it matters. Because to someone, it does.
American Awards & Graphics has been in business for over 35 years, helping schools, teams, churches, businesses and military families across Hampton Roads celebrate the people who matter to them.
Owner Frankie and the team handle everything in-house — from helping you choose the right piece to engraving, assembly and final quality check. Customers who can't make it in during the week work with us entirely by email, and we're known for coming through on tight deadlines when a graduation, retirement or ceremony sneaks up.
Every order is engraved and assembled by us — no outsourcing, no surprises.
Crisp, detailed engraving on wood, acrylic, glass, leather and coated metals — ideal for logos, signatures and fine text.
Classic diamond-drag and cut engraving for brass plates, metal trophies, silver trays, pewter and jewelry boxes.
Photos, team pictures and full-color logos on plaques, mugs and plates — perfect for memorial and coach gifts.
Cast bronze, gold and aluminum plaques with stake or blind-mount options, custom medals, chenille pins, ribbons and championship belts.
It depends on the item and quantity — most engraving is quick, while large team orders and custom pieces take longer. Tell us your date when you order and we'll confirm the timeline. In a rush? Call us; we'll do everything we can.
