Custom Brass Cap Badge with Color Enamel

Key Design & Motif Elements

• Custom Crests & Logos: High-relief 3D or 2D die-struck detailing for intricate heraldry, eagles, shields, unit emblems, or state seals.

• Typography: Raised or recessed lettering along outer banners, concentric circles, or base scrollwork.

• Enamel Accents: Optional hand-applied hard enamel (cloisonné) or soft enamel fills for sharp, vibrant unit colors.

• Decorative Framework: Classic laurel wreaths, starburst rays, rope borders, or clean polished rims.

Standard Materials & Craftsmanship

• Base Metal: High-grade commercial solid brass for superior structural integrity and corrosion resistance.

• Manufacturing: Precision die-striking or heavy die-casting to preserve sharp geometric lines and fine details.

• Protective Coating: Clear electro-lacquer coat applied to prevent tarnishing, oxidation, and surface scratches over long-term use.

Sizing & Specifications

• Dimensions: 40 mm to 65 mm (1.5" to 2.5") in height or diameter, depending on cap style and regulation standards.

• Thickness: 2.0 mm to 3.5 mm solid thickness to withstand daily wear without bending.
