Chains of Office
Creating a legacy
A
For centuries, Chains of Office have
honored the highest officials in education.
Medallic Art Company has been creating
these lasting symbols of esteem since 1903.
A handcrafted Chain of Office by
Medallic Art Company is by far the most
fitting way to recognize and distinguish
your institution’s President, Chancellor,
Board of Trustees, or Dean during
commencement ceremonies and other
prestigious events.
Every carefully crafted piece can be
customized to make a Chain of Office
unique to your institution. Medallic
Art’s team of experienced designers and
craftsmen assist you every step of the way
in creating a legacy of office that will be
revered for a long time to come.

How to Wear Your Chain of Office
A Chain of Office is, by design, an elaborate handmade article of art and
should not be uncomfortable.
The most comfortable way to wear a Chain of Office is to balance it by
allowing the back of the chain to hang so as to offset the weight of the chain's
front. A short stabilizing chain link attached to the upper part of the inside
of your Chain of Office should be worn behind the neck to help position it
properly. You may also wish to secure and stabilize the chain by having a button
or hook sewn on the shoulders.
Component Selector
Personalize your institution’s Chain of Office
by adding stock/engravable links.
Your seal, logo or any graphic element
can be added to the round, square and
rectangular shaped links. You can also
engrave those links, as well as the banners
and books, to permanently recognize
your institution’s leaders, schools and
significant dates.
Then select the chain link style that
best complements your institution,
with your choice of bronze, silver or
24kt gold finishes.

Many institutions choose to
recognize past leaders on these
curved banners. California
Baptist had the names of its
presidents engraved in a curve to
match the shape of the banner.

California Baptist
University wanted to
celebrate its history
by using several logos
associated with the

these logos stand out.

Ceremonial Maces
If You Can
Imagine It, We
Can Create It
A custom-made,
handcrafted mace by
Medallic Art adds
grandeur to all of your
official ceremonies.
Designing a mace that is
unique to your institution
and fits your needs, style
and budget is as easy as
making a phone call
to one of our design
consultants. You can choose
a pre-existing design, mix
and match sections from
various mace models, or
design a completely different
look if you desire. The finest
materials and workmanship
are combined to create an
elegant work of art that
establishes an enduring
legacy for your institution.
Florida
Gulf Coast
University
decided to
use an eagle
design in
its logo to
surround the
medal.

silver-plated
this typically

mace.
The Commonwealth
Medical College
created an all-new
design for its mace,
incorporating a
large metal flame
and onyx cylinder
as the focal point.

Tarleton State
University used
sections of two
of our existing
mace models as a
starting point for
its design. Then
the Medallic Art
team worked
with the college
to design a mace
that was perfect
for its needs. The
university also
had a new mace
stand designed to
reach the height
needed.
Take a style you
like and make it
uniquely yours.
California Lutheran
University decided
to have wood on the
head of its mace
instead of metal.

Graduation Medals
A Fitting Recognition
of Honor and
Accomplishment
Graduation Medals are a terrific
way to recognize the efforts of each
graduate.
A high-quality graduation medal
enhances the graduate’s sense of
accomplishment and is the first
step in establishing a post-graduate
relationship.
Over the years, as memories fade,
this medal will bring to mind every
graduate’s connection and commitment
to their alma mater. The medal serves
as a constant reminder of the quality of
their education and their school.
Medallic Art Company has been
making the country’s most prestigious
medals since 1903. The small
investment for a high-quality medal will
pay dividends in goodwill for years to
come.
Start a tradition of recognizing your
graduates with beautiful handcrafted
medals today. The pride on the faces of
your graduates alone will convince you
that they deserve a medal.
