How is it December already with Christmas less than 3 weeks away. It's a hive of activity at Inkerman, sending out corporate and private gifts to clients all over the world. Last week we were delighted to be able to help a city client with a last minute order for 150 personalised tumblers, only possible now we have our in house etching machine! The Inkerman outlet is now live and there are some great gifts to be had, all of these products are making way for new product incoming in the New Year. We are really excited about the launch of our new personalised wooden products too!
.
Thank you to each and everyone of you for your support this year and we wish you all a very
Happy Christmas and New Year.

Cheltenham - November Meeting
We were thrilled to be back at Cheltenham for the November meet, providing 22 trophies for the owners, trainers and jockeys. There were lots of first time winners for owners and up and coming jockeys and some exciting racing. Our Trophy Room has had a makeover with new branding, it's positioned at the top of the parade ring and all the trophies for each race are shown in the window each day.
We were delighted to be featured in the Gold Cup 100 Book - that draws inspiration from a hundred heroes, a combination of horses and humans, who between them have created the golden aura surrounding the championship race from its humble beginnings to being the race "every jockey needs to win".

DHL Esport F1 Trophy
Inkerman helped to create this one-off trophy for DHL, as part of the company's sponsorship of Formula 1. The design was created by a fan and was inspired by the soundwave of the F1 Pit Stop call of 'Box, Box' – incorporating technology, innovation and sustainability, it was clear why DHL chose this fan's design as its winning trophy.
The main body of the trophy was created individually by water jet cutting of 34 aluminium disks with a mirror polish nickel plated finish, paired with yellow and red recycled acrylic disks in the DHL colours. The trophy was completed with an anodised aluminium plinth.
The finished piece was shipped by DHL to the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix before being presented to Jonathan Wheatley of Oracle Red Bull Racing.

TOP TIP
With every penny counting this Christmas why not consider giving a group present, gather some friends or family together and all put money into a collection.
Get one large present instead of lots of little ones!
A set of four tumblers for every member of the family - never lose your glass again!
