Acrylic Block Risers

At shopPOPdisplays, we take pride in the number of solid acrylic display block risers we have for sale – we have a number of different sizes that are each suited to specific jewelries. Long blocks are great for necklaces that can be draped over the corners, giving customers more of a preview. Smaller blocks can be used to display earrings, rings, or bracelets. Ultimately, what each of our clear plastic blocks does and what it highlights is up to you – if you have an idea, chances are our acrylic block risers can make it happen.

Each block is cut from solid acrylic, also known as Lucite. Following the precision cut process, each clear acrylic cube is then diamond polished to give it that smooth, glass-like finish. These acrylic block display stands are wonderful additions to any jewelry display case. When properly lit, each plastic block will reflect the jewelry pieces and give off a brilliant light. Jewelry isn’t drab – don’t let your presentation be either! Enhance your shop with acrylic display block risers today!

FAQs

What are acrylic blocks?

Solid acrylic blocks also called acrylic display blocks are commonly used as cube display risers in retail, museums and art galleries. They are made of plexiglass and provide an elegant presence, elevate products to provide better viewing angles, and create visual interest. Organize and present your products creatively using our sturdy, elegant, clear acrylic cubes, made in our US factories and ready to ship.

Do you carry small & large acrylic blocks?

shoppopdisplays carries a wide selection of block types. We have 1" thick small acrylic blocks up to 4" thick large acrylic blocks.

How do you use acrylic blocks for stamping?

An acrylic block used for stamping is also called stamping block, a stamp block, or an acrylic stamp block. As the pros at Alte New point out, "a stamper without an acrylic block is akin to a painter without a paintbrush." Most stampers have acrylic blocks in an array of sizes to fit their various needs.

New photopolymer stamps can be sticky at first, so you'll need to prep them before using. You do this by rubbing a rubber eraser all over the stamp.

Then, remove the stamp from the acetate sheet and place it onto the acrylic stamp block. Some blocks have grid lines to help with placement. Use an acrylic block that is slightly larger than the stamp to achieve optimal results.

Ink up your stamp by lightly patting the ink pad onto the stamp—and be sure not to press the ink pad too hard or tilt it from side to side.

Stamp the inked stamp image down and firmly press all parts of the image onto the cardstock. Again, never tilt your acrylic stamp block from side to side as it may produce ink flooding or image distortion, just press on it gently.

Remove the acrylic stamp block to reveal your stamped image.

Are acrylic blocks reusable?

Yes! You can use your acrylic blocks repeatedly—you simply need to clean them in between uses.

How do you clean acrylic blocks?

You can use a stamp cleaner (like this one) and a stamp shammy or chamois (check out this one), but you can also easily use disposable wet wipes or baby wipes to get the job done.
