Custom Hard Enamel Lapel Pins – Smooth Premium Finish (MOQ 50)

Custom hard enamel lapel pins – smooth premium finish

Hard enamel pins (often called cloisonné-style) are the premium choice when you want a flat, smooth, polished surface with clean metal outlines. They’re ideal for corporate identity, recognition, anniversaries, premium gifts and any pin that must look “high-end” on suits, uniforms, jackets or bags.

• Smooth & polished – enamel is finished flush for a refined “jewelry-like” look
• Professional appearance – crisp metal borders and solid color areas
• Durable for everyday wear – suitable for uniforms and repeated use
• MOQ 50 pcs – ideal for organizations, events and teams

Hard enamel vs soft enamel (quick choice)

• Choose hard enamel if you want a smooth premium finish and a more “luxury” look.
• Choose soft enamel if you prefer a textured enamel look with recessed color areas and raised metal lines.

Customize your hard enamel pins

We make your pins to specification. Typical options include:

• Size & shape: round, shield, or custom outline
• Plating: gold / silver / black nickel (other finishes on request)
• Backings: butterfly clutch, safety pin, magnetic backing (depending on use-case)
• Packaging: bulk packing or gift options (on request)

Guided order form (recommended)

Not sure which specifications to pick? Our guided configurator helps you select the key options (finish, plating, backing, size and 2D/3D preference) before you upload your artwork. This reduces back-and-forth and speeds up your proof process.

Artwork tips for the best hard enamel result

• Best for solid colors – hard enamel is perfect for clean, bold shapes
• Avoid gradients – enamel pins don’t reproduce smooth gradients like printing does
• Keep very tiny details minimal – if your design is extremely detailed, consider a full-color printed pin

1. Upload your artwork (AI, PDF, EPS, SVG are ideal; PNG/JPG also accepted).
2. Receive a digital proof to confirm size, plating and backing.
