Our History is Academic
Dedicated to Quality for
More Than a Century
Medallic Art Company was established in
1903 and quickly achieved a reputation as the
premier source of art medals and prestigious
award medals in the country. Over the course
of a century, we have handcrafted medallions,
chains of office, ceremonial maces, and
related items for more than 2,300 schools
and universities – and counting – making
the chances good that we already have your
design in our archives.
The tradition of recording triumph, honor,
and success indelibly in metal – as practiced
in ancient Greece and perfected in
renaissance Europe – still informs our work
today. Having created some of the most wellknown medals and awards – among them the
Pulitzer, the Peabody, and the Medal of Honor
– our customers can be assured that their
item will also be an item of
lasting significance.
With completed work for
more than 2,300 schools
and universities, you can
easily take advantage of
Medallic Art Company’s
carefully maintained die
and mold library to create
new medals for your
chains, maces and awards.

Chains of Office
Capilano University
used symbols
from its existing,
traditional hand
carved ceremonial
mace to provide
intricate designs
for its chain
components.
Comfortably Wear
Your Chain of Office
J
The most comfortable way to wear
a chain of office is by balancing the
length of the chain on the shoulders
to offset the weight of the chain’s
front. You can do this by sewing
Velcro, buttons or hooks onto the
shoulders of your garment to secure
the chain in position. Ask about our
optional stabilizing chain link, which
attaches to the upper part of the
inside of the chain, and when worn
behind the neck, helps to position
the chain properly.

Masterful use of
negative space creates
a bold and memorable
component.

such as a velvet collar
underneath your chain,
are available as well.

How to Build Your Chain
Choose Your Components
Fully Customizable
The chain of office artfully encompasses
an institution’s heritage and identity,
which is why we provide you numerous
ways to customize your chain to
represent your unique legacy.
Your chain may contain traditional elements such as the ornamental components
below or you may also wish to add customized elements using our shapes (at left)
including words or images that are significant to your institution, such as a university
symbol, a mascot, the institution’s motto, names or previous presidents, or any other
item unique to you.
• Ornamental Components
These components can be added to enhance the symbolism of your chain.
• Die-strike or Engrave
The round, square, rectangle and shield components
can be customized to best represent your institution’s
mission. The die-striking process (shown in the middle
examples below) is best used for adding intricate
details or if a three-dimensional look is desired. The
engraving process (shown in the right-most examples
below) is good for adding words or simple, stylized art.

Choose Your Metal
The metal you choose makes a significant
statement. You may choose copper or silver
because it’s the state mineral or gold because
your institution is celebrating a centennial.
Your metal choice will reflect your school’s
mission and heritage just as your seal does.
A smaller die-struck,
or three-dimensional,
version of your seal

to your chain,

The ceremonial mace is the symbolic
extension of a leader’s authority.
Medallic Art Company combines
the finest materials and quality
workmanship to create an original work
of art that establishes an enduring legacy
of leadership for your institution.
“I enjoyed working with
you on this project. Please
thank everyone at Medallic
Art involved with the
project. The mace turned
out beautifully and arrived
on time for the spring
graduation ceremonies.”
— Tom Matthews,
South Texas College
South Texas College designed its
own mace for a truly exceptional

institution’s history and values.
“Your team has been
exceptional to work with;
thank you for all you’ve done,
do, and have yet to do!”
— Jennifer Suchan,
University of Northern Iowa
The University of
Northern Iowa required
three distinct maces: a
54” institutional mace
and two 33” maces for
faculty and students.
Each represents the
University of Northern
Iowa’s rich heritage
by incorporating the
institution’s shield,
wreath and lamp of
knowledge. The use of
dark walnut with gold
and silver accents helps
to maintain a consistent
look throughout.

Perfectly Capture Your Tradition
The Medical College of Georgia Foundation came to us with a
unique design in mind to honor the history of the college.
Using professional photographs and the plans for the original
medical college building, Medallic Art Company was able
to recreate this icon in beautiful detail, a symbol of the rich
and vibrant history of the college as well as the bright future
ahead. With our entire creative staff at your disposal, Medallic
Art Company can perfectly capture your institution’s history
and traditions in breathtaking fashion.

Macettes & Batons
This 20.5”
cherrywood baton
tapers for a sleek
look. The top can be
engraved or have a

When Smaller is Better
Macettes and batons are perfect when a more
personal size is needed. The smaller size makes
them lighter and easier to carry for longer
periods of time. If some of your institution’s
ceremonies make it difficult to use your larger
mace, a smaller duplicate will help you maintain
the pomp and circumstance of important events.
Macettes and batons will also be cherished as
gifts to donors and departing leadership.

How to Build Your Mace
Create a Flawless Representation
of Your Institution
Every aspect of your ceremonial mace or macette
can be customized to fit your school’s needs,
style, and budget. You can choose from one
of our popular styles, customizing with your
school’s seal, logos, and mottos, or you can use
some existing styles as a starting point to create
something a little different by changing the head,
staff or foot.
You can also create a completely new mace or
macette to better represent your institution. You
choose the materials, the size, any additional
custom elements, and the stand that best
displays your mace when it’s not in use. You
can even add engravable metal bands, called
banners, or other elements to make your
ceremonial mace or macette wholly unique to
your institution.
• Choose a Head Style
The head of the mace can showcase a single medallion
or several medallions honoring
a long history. Additions like a
wreath or flame provide a
traditional academic
look if desired.
An engravable
metal platform
can be added
to some styles
to include
mottos or
values to the
mace. Custom
mace heads are
also a powerful
way to express
your school’s
history and values.
• Choose a Staff Style
• Create Your Medallions
Traditionally designed after a school’s seal, the medallions
could also showcase important themes, buildings, leaders,
or other elements of significance to your institution.
The staff of your mace or macette can be very modest
or as ornate as you can imagine. Engravable metal
sections or banners (shown here) can be added to
honor your institution’s beliefs, leaders, donors,
academic programs, or separate campuses.
Get
Started Early
• Choose Your Materials
Your choice of materials makes a powerful statement about
how you honor your institution’s heritage and values. For
example, the University of Utah chose to include distinct
copper accents on the mace staff, venerating Utah’s state
mineral. Louisiana State University supplied Medallic
Art with wood from their campus, paying homage to the
beautiful oaks that cover the grounds. The beauty of your
mace is limited only by your imagination and sense of
propriety, never by the materials available for its creation.
• Choose a Mace Stand
A mace stand displays and protects your mace
while it is not in use. The mace stand is made to
order to fit your custom mace. See page 17 to
see the options available.
An exceptionally high level of
customization and attention to
detail is required to craft your
mace or macette. It is best to
begin working on the design
at least two months in advance
If time is an issue, please ask
about our impressive
stock selections.
• Choose a Foot Style
The final touch on your
custom mace or macette
should reflect the overall
style. The foot can be
made of metal or wood
to carry out the look and
function you need.

Stock Maces
Pressed for Time?
With just enough time,
Medallic Art was able
to create a new Central
Catholic High School seal
medal to place on a stock
mace.
The 42” style
stock mace allows
for two medals to be
mounted onto the
wood disk on top.
The traditional look of our stock maces
and macettes complement any medal or
seal design and can be made available
more quickly if you have an approaching
event. If we have already made a die for
you, we can mint a new medal for the
head of the mace. Or you can choose to
engrave one of our stock medals (see the
selection on pages 28-31) with your seal,
other imagery or wording.
The 24” style
stock mace has a medal
mounted on top and
brass foot that can be
silver- or gold-plated.
Reverse
The U.S. Sports Academy
had two of our stock medals
placed on a stock mace in order
to meet a fast-approaching
deadline for a ceremony.
The 14” style stock macette allows for a
smaller medal mounted on top and brass
foot that can be silver- or gold-plated.
Stock maces and
macettes are available
in cherrywood or
dark walnut. Changes
or additions may be
available if time permits.

Honoring Heritage
Design Versatility
and Consistency
Once you have created one necessary
item, such as a mace or chain, your
medal design makes it possible to build
other items essential to displaying your
institution’s heritage. A seal design
can be used for everything from chain
components, to cuff links, to lapel pins,
to awards and especially graduation
medals.
Brooklyn
Technical High
School reflects its
passion for the
school’s history
by repeating its
exquisite seal on
its chain of office
and mace.
All of your Medallic Art Company
articles can share the same art designs,
which reinforces the values of your
institution.
Maria College saved time and
money by using the same medal for
both its mace and chain of office.

Eastern Virginia Medical
School maintains a
consistent look even

Celebrate Leadership
Recognize the Dedication
of Departing Leaders
How do you reward a leader’s faithful and
tireless service to your institution? Give
them an enduring symbol of the institution
they love and of their term in office. These
gifts are perfect for honoring the sacrifice
and dedication of outgoing Presidents,
Chancellors, Trustees, Regents, or Provosts.
You can recognize them with a unique custom
piece or you can use an existing piece to
create a memorable gift.
Arkansas Tech University presented its
outgoing president, Dr. Robert Charles Brown,
left, with this ceremonial macette in honor of
his 20 years of service to the institution.
The University of
Georgia gifted this
chain of office to its
retiring president,
adding his ending
tenure date onto a
banner component
on the chain. The
university had a new
chain made for its
incoming president.
Bethune-Cookman
University used
an existing medal
design to create
this gift for its
retiring president.
“Thanks so much
for the beautiful work you
have created for our outgoing
president! It looks marvelous
and everyone has exclaimed
how elegant and appropriate
it is to honor her years in
office.”

Sharing the complete story
The Kenai Peninsula College Community Commemorative
Coin project commemorated the Kenai Peninsula Borough’s
50th year of service to the area’s citizens and visitors
alike. Consisting of both copper and silver coins, each coin
included a detailed certificate of authenticity that relayed
the history of the borough, the school district, and the
college and told the story of the making of the coins.
Custom Certificates
of Authenticity allow
you to share a personal
message that goes
beyond the message
on the medallion.
