Design and Function
The Blue Wave Paperweight brings a calming oceanic motion to any desktop. Its clear plastic shell houses a thickened gel that rolls back and forth in slow motion, creating a mesmerizing tidal illusion. Measuring 6 inches by 1.75 inches, it provides enough weight to keep loose papers organized while adding a touch of tranquility to your workspace.
Customization
This paperweight offers a smooth surface for pad printing, allowing you to add your company logo or a personalized message. The pad print method applies a thin, opaque ink layer that conforms to the curved surface, ensuring crisp, detailed artwork. It's an effective way to reinforce your brand in an office or award setting.
Safety and Care
Please note that this product is not intended for use by children or pets, as it may present a choking hazard to children under 3 years of age. The plastic construction is easy to clean with a soft cloth. Its durable design ensures it remains a lasting desk accessory.
Decoration & Imprint
1 method
Your logo or message is pad printed onto the top surface of the paperweight. Pad print uses a thin, opaque ink layer that conforms to the curved surface, producing crisp edges and fine detail. For best results, use fine lines and small text, as broad solid fills may not suit the thin ink layer.

Pad printing (tampography) transfers ink from a silicone pad onto the item, flexing into curves, angles, and recessed areas flat application can't follow. The result is a thin, nearly flush ink layer with well-defined edges — each color prints as an opaque spot-ink solid, holding evenly on contoured or darker surfaces; cured ink resists everyday wear.

From our decoration and product guides
- What is pad printing and what does it look like?
- Pad printing (tampography) transfers ink from a silicone pad onto the item, so the pad flexes into curves, angles and recessed areas that a flat application cannot follow. The result is a thin, nearly flush ink layer with well-defined edges. Each color prints as an opaque spot-ink solid that holds evenly on contoured or darker surfaces, and the cured ink resists everyday wear. More about Pad Printed →
- When should I choose pad printing over screen printing?
- When the artwork has fine lines, small text or tight detail that must stay sharp on a contoured or uneven surface, such as a pen barrel or a curved drinkware wall. The conforming pad holds crisp edges where flat methods cannot reach. Pad printing suits fine detail better than flooding large areas, so for broad solid fills, photographs or gradients look at screen printing or a full-color process instead. More about Pad Printed →
- What is PMS color matching?
- Pantone Matching System (PMS) color matching means the printer mixes ink to your exact Pantone number instead of substituting the nearest stock color, so the merchandise in the field matches the logo in your brand guide. It is the difference between branded merchandise that looks like your brand and merch that almost does. More about PMS color matching →
