What is a hard enamel lapel pin?

A hard enamel pin is a high-quality pin with a professional and elegant appearance. It's die-struck, which means it's made from stamped metal such as iron, copper, or brass to create a solid piece. The pin is then filled with colored enamel by hand or machine.

Unlike with soft enamel pins, the enamel is added all the way to the top of the recessed areas to create a uniform surface. After, the pin is baked to harden the enamel and then polished to create a sleek, glassy finish that's not disrupted by metal edges.

Hard enamel pins vs. soft enamel pins

While soft enamel pins have a textured feel, hard enamel pins feel smooth and flat. Their construction makes them more durable and scratch-resistant than soft enamel pins. And though hard enamel pins are affordable, they cost a bit more than soft enamel due to their labor-intensive fabrication process.

Hard enamel pins offer a supreme level of customization, but they may not be the right choice for designs with subtle detail. This is because smaller details can be difficult to see after the pin has gone through the polishing process. If you have an intricate design, consider going with soft enamel instead.
