The technology of Die Struck:
Die struck lapel pins give the appearance of your image or design being "carved" into the metal surface of the lapel pin. This creates the illusion of a sculptured piece of jewelry and is quite impressive.
The small detailing of die struck pins is what makes them stand out most. We double strike your design into the bronze base metal for greatest relief and detailing and we offer additional options for your pins to further enhance your design. Die struck pins are available with sandblasting in the recessed (background) areas. This creates a matte finish and a lovely contrast from the polished raised areas of your logo. This is the best way to give depth to your design and highlight fine details.
ade of all premium materials, the clean lines of die struck pins speak for themselves. Die struck pins are consistently popular with customers who require a pin style that reflects both dignity and class -- clients like law firms, universities, fraternities, and government offices. Die struck pins are also rapidly becoming a favorite for employee recognition.
How They Are Made:A die is used to stamp an impression onto a copper, brass or iron sheet. Copper has a slight advantageover iron since it is a softer metal. This means when struck with the die, copper products typically have sharper images than their iron counterparts. After being struck by the die, the impressions are cut out to form individual product faces. The products can either be left in that state to give an attractive relief look, or alternatively, the recesses can be filled in with bold colored enamels. Our high polished products do not have their recesses filled with enamel paints. Instead, the very carefully crafted products are given a matt or textured finish. The raised areas are highly polished for a very distinguished look.
These products are of very high quality. Finishes for this style include gold on gold, silver on silver, bronze and black metals. Antique or brush finishes are also available at an additional charge. The antique process produces a unique, rich, quite understated look for any style of product, guaranteed to catch the eye.
