Creating custom high polish lapel pins involves a specialised finishing process that results in a captivating, mirror-like shine across the entire product. Unlike sandblasted alternatives that leave a textured or matte background, this manufacturing method ensures that both the raised and recessed metal sections are polished to a brilliant finish. The die struck base is plated in your choice of silver, gold, or copper, and then meticulously polished to create an expensive look and feel that significantly elevates the perceived value of the final item.
Organisations frequently commission these premium lapel pins to recognise significant achievements or build high-end corporate identity. A financial institution might issue them to senior executives to mark decades of service, while a luxury brand could use them as exclusive merchandise for VIP clients. Because the design relies entirely on the contrast between the raised and recessed polished metal rather than coloured enamel, they are particularly suited for elegant, monochrome artwork, and can even be adapted for use on bracelets and necklaces.
The product range covers eight different dimensions to accommodate various design requirements, starting from subtle 15mm squares up to prominent 50mm commemorative pieces. To complete the premium presentation, they can be packaged in custom boxes, velvet pouches, or backing cards. With minimum orders starting at 50 units and free dies and setup included, they provide a sophisticated way to produce high-value metal merchandise for your most important events.
