HANDLE WITH CARE
All statuettes are made with high quality resin materials, ensuring durability to last a lifetime.
Although our products have undergone crash tests, they are not considered totally free from breakage, impervious to pressure or impact upon contact with any solid material on all sides.
 
Maintenance:
 
Caution: Luster may fade after a while. DO NOT POLISH.
These are not made of wood, metal or stone. All statuettes are made of fibeglass in faux finishes – coated in simulated textures of such materials. Do not use any cleaning agent or any wiping cloth. Gently clean surface using a light dusting brush.
BE OUR PARTNER!
Statuettes may also be availed as fundraisers by UP communities.
  • We welcome partnerships with UP-accredited and affiliated organizations, sororities and fraternities (either student or alumni groups).
  • Commissions are given to partners equivalent to 5% of the total sales.
  • For other arrangements, please contact us.
Membership Verification for Statuettes with Seals (For INDIVIDUAL and GROUP Orders)
  • Though we cannot altogether verify that all who ordered statuettes with seals of UP orgs/frats/soros are bonafide members of the said groups, we will from time to time address the issue with the respective student and alumni officers concerned.
  • One current scheme works by having org members place their statuette orders thru their respective officers, whose org/soro/frat will then be entitled to commissions (as our partner group).

The Oblation Statuettes are reserved exclusively for UP Alumni, UP-affiliated organizations, and undergraduate UP students who have completed a minimum of 70 units. However, non-UP individuals may place an order if the statuette is intended as a gift for a UP alumni, such as a graduation present for a relative or friend. This exclusivity ensures that the tradition and honor embodied by the Oblation remains closely tied to the UP community.
