ABSTRACT:
A desk trophy and decorative paperweight display constructed of a clear plastic parabolic dome(10), whose outer edge ends in a cylindrical shape, which is affixed to a clear plastic three-dimensional trapezoidal shaped base piece(11) via a square bottomed circular groove machined into the smaller horizontal surface in a diameter identical to that of the end diameter of the dome The dome is filled with an allotment of silver colored metal balls(14). A single gold colored metal ball(12)that is larger than the silver metal balls is supported within the most superior portion of the dome by the presence of the silver balls. Two inscribed plaques, one silver colored, one gold colored, are affixed to opposite vertical sides of the trapezoidal base. The number of silver metal balls relates to the number inscribed on the silver plaque with the wording: "Remember . . . Only One Person in .sub.---- #.sub.------ Knows What You Know" The number and size of silver metal balls will vary with the intended use of the trophy. The gold colored plaque is inscribed with the recipient's name professional degree initials, school of graduation, and year of graduation. To construct the trophy, the dome is filled first with the gold colored metal ball, then with the silver metal balls, and is affixed to an inverted base with adhesive; the plaques are affixed to the base sides. The trophy recipients are mainly intended to be graduates of professional schools or programs with the number of silver balls and single gold ball in the dome representing the uniqueness of the graduate compared with the general population at large. Other applications are possible.
