Decision time
Lots of sporting goods and even home furnishing stores sell a selection of trophy cases that are easily affordable in keeping with their selected hobbies and past times and of course which are pleasing on the eye. However, firstly, what the keen displayer needs is the ability to visualise what sort of trophy cabinet would best suit hos or her needs. Are you a war medal and a paperwork collector? Then, maybe glass or glass with wood display cases which come in a various selection of heights and sizes are probably the best choice to present. Some collectors cherish their militaria and show only a little portion of their treasure to prevent light, dust and fingerprints from damaging them, with small display cases being the first choice to do so. For the sporty or person keen to show his or her achievements in life, what would suit him or her the most? Most amateur athletes and sportsmen like to display their medals and trophies within their eyeline ad that of their guests. However, if the events they have won require more space, then an entire walled cabinet can be required to proudly show their wins - or in a best-worst case scenario, an entire room or garage can become a shrine to their dedication with various cases and cabinets used to best effect. This might be because the sportsperson swaps shirts or boots after matches, or prefers to hang framed memorabilia around his or her house beside silverware and it can transcend genres from writing and film awards, armoury and so on. The list is potentially endless.
Build your own
For the brave and talented enthusiasts, instead of buying a ready-made or pre-packed trophy display cases, they may make their own if they are handy at carpentry or joinery, giving their prized possessions even more of a shine as they shape the cabinet to their own style and abilities. It also gives another talking and centre point feature of the room.
