Our story began with Gino Zavarella, Sr. After serving his country in the United States Navy (both World War II and the Korean War), he used the GI Bill to learn the art of engraving. In 195,0, he started his business doing engraving work for area jewelers. Soon thereafter, he went into the jewelry business and then into the awards and recognition business. He started Gino’s Awards in Cleveland, OH. He ran the company until his passing at the age of 92. The company is still owned and managed by the Zavarella Family.
Ken is the man! He saved my company and I after we ordered crystal awards online that just were not to the standard we needed. Ken saw the potential and came up with a solution that met our needs. Thank you. We will be back

Never purchased anything from Gino's, but as an IT Tech for UPS, Gino's was a good client of ours. I can say a lot of good folks work here and care about servicing their customers. Special shout-out to Sue and Mike. Pleasure to provide you with service over the years. God Bless

Anna helped me order a brass title plate for an art piece of mine when I was in a big time crunch-and she was so helpful. Would definitely recommend.
