Monthly Blog- July


Here we are, half way through the year and what a year it has been.


We have been very excited to share some of our new products with you, ahead of our new catalogue release.


Ben has been out on the road assisting our lovely customers. This month he is around both Essex and Leicester. To arrange a visit with Ben, our field sales rep, please email to arrange a visit here.



It’s that time of year again when the rackets are out in full swing and everyone is excited for Wimbledon to start. This includes everyone here at Crystal Galleries. Nothing excites us more than a good old, traditional competition for everyone to shout and cheer on.

To celebrate the start of Wimbledon we are giving one lucky customer the chance to win an Italian food and red wine pairing experience for two.


To enter simply spend over £500 with us, quote the code SWING when you place your order and you will be automatically entered into a prize draw to win.



In our ongoing efforts to minimise our carbon footprint, Crystal Galleries are proud to announce a new tree planting programme. For every sustainable award we provide, we will finance the planting of a tree. We kick started the month of June with 100 trees, these have funded projects in Kenya, Ethiopia and Ecuador.



Our product of the month for July is our beautiful optical crystal rectangle blocks. Any bespoke design can be sub-surface laser engraved with either a 2D or 3D image. Each block is supplied in its very own presentation box making it the perfect unique gift or award.


To wrap this month’s blog up I would like to introduce two valuable members of our production team. Sue, our Operations Manager and Jess our Production Manager. They are both dedicated to making sure that your order leaves our site to the highest of standards.


Have a great July.

That CG is a family-owned business - I have always worked for local authorities in my past employment life so it's really different atmosphere that's been created by Jem and Jo.

I am an avid fan of most sports, having been to Wimbledon, Wembley, Twickenham, Millenium Stadium, Kalvin Hall and of course watching the mighty BORO at the Riverside.......my bucket list still contains Formula 1 racing - with the Spanish Grand Prix at Barcelona would be dream come true.
