Lapel Pins & Badges - Cloisonné
Cloisonné is a process that has been used for thousands of years. The enamel pins are filled with coloured powder, twice kiln fired at 800°C, then hand polished to offer a scratch and fade resistance surface. Cloisonné is the most hard wearing of our badges but tends to be the most expensive because of the care taken in production.
Material: Copper
Process: Die Struck
Plating: Gold/Silver/Bronze/Black Nickel/Copper/Antique Gold/Antique Silver/Antique Bronze/Antique Copper
Colour: Full Colour (limited to cloisonné powder options)
Effect: Single or Double Sided, 2D or 3D
Attachments: Most common attachments are spur nail with metal butterfly clutch, or safety brooch pin. Ask us if you want different attachment options.
Lapel Pins & Badges - Hard Enamel
Imitation Hard Enamel is a modern process (invented in the early 1990s) which creates a very similar badge to Cloisonné but has a lower cost and gives a wider range of colours to choose from. Hand-filled colour resin is fired at 80-90°C, then polished to become a smooth, flat surface. We commonly use iron as a base material, but other options are available.
Material: Iron, Copper, Bronze, Zinc Alloy
Process: Die Struck
Plating: Gold/Silver/Bronze/Black Nickel/Copper/Antique Gold/Antique Silver/Antique Bronze/Antique Copper
Colour: Full Colour (refer to Pantone Matching System)

Attachments: Most common attachments are spur nail with metal butterfly clutch, or safety brooch pin. Ask us if you want different attachment options.
Lapel Pins & Badges - soft Enamel
Soft Enamel is our most cost-effective enamel badge, yet the quality is still very high. Similar to Imitation Hard The enamel is hand-filled below the level of the raised areas of metal so that, when it is baked at 160°C and polished, the surface remains textured. There is an option to add an epoxy finish to protect the enamel and create a smooth surface.
Material: Iron, Copper, Bronze, Zinc Alloy
Process: Die Struck
Plating: Gold/Silver/Bronze/Black Nickel/Copper/Antique Gold/Antique Silver/Antique Bronze/Antique Copper
