Frankzweekhorst Report post Posted July 16, 2018 Im the process of creating logo bracelets but I'm having such a hard time finding the right hardware. I've tried a list of suppliers in China, but this takes so much time, and is leading nowhere :-( Anyone got suggestions where I can find a maker of custom pins like the pin in the photo? (Since I'm Dutch I'm not really sure if "pin" is the right name, but it took me a day to figure this out :-) I'm also looking for logo (magnetic) bracelet clasps, guess I have to post that in an other topic, but any tips will be more than welcome as well :-) All help we be very much appreciated!

alpha2 Report post Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) That is Mont Blanc's copyrighted logo, you could try them. I would think that anyone else selling them for commercial use might be a copyright infringement. Jeff Edited July 16, 2018 by alpha2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeff Maybe I wasn't clear.... we got our own brand, this pic was purely to show you what kind of hardware I am looking for, we want this kind of pin with our own logo. But thanks for the copyright lesson :-) Frank Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have a great day! Frank Franc & Hanz | Bespoke and handmade bags & cases www.franc-hanz.com I have had my own or customer logo ones made up before of a similar type of thing. As I am in Australia I doubt my contacts here would be much use to you but ....what I did is contact a badge making company and had them attach to the back a 5 or 7mm post as is used in a speedy rivet. This was soldered onto the back of the brass badge.It is important that they do not allow the solder to fill the speedy rivet post as this stops it from collapsing as it should when pressed into its receiving part. I have also had very high quality badges I designed made in Japan but are quite expensive there. http://www.metalhouse.co.jp/english/ Somewhere in their blog they show how that made a fitting I designed for Atelier Mason M . Hope that is of some help. Brian PS check their blog page first as it shows quite a few of the soldered on speedy rivet post now.

chrisash Report post Posted July 23, 2018 There is or was a company in Norwich England who make enamel pins in small quantities, first they make a guide frame of the design and then put enamel into each section and heat it till it melts, not heard of the lately but sure there will be many others, most are made by clubs etc for lapel badges of all shapes and sizes Just found them at http://www.norwichgiftsolutions.co.uk/pin-badges/hard-enamel-badges-hard-enamel-badges.php Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
