How To Recognize Custom Lapel Pins By Style

For the new customer, ordering custom lapel pins for the first time can be exciting. Whether it is for a sports tournament, employee recognition ceremony or new product launch, businesses, organizations, and teams can benefit from knowing what types of lapel pins we offer and the characteristics that make each one unique.
Different events call for different types of lapel pins. For example, a die struck years of service pin looks nothing like a soft enamel baseball trading pin and they are used by two entirely different groups of people. Academic institutes and corporations are more interested in the features that a die struck lapel pin has to offer whereas sports teams are concerned about the appearance, perceived value, and tradability of the custom soft enamel lapel pins that they order.
You can ask yourself the following question, "What am I trying to achieve with my custom lapel pin order?" If you are still not 100% certain, you can refer to this guide for assistance.
Types of Custom Lapel Pins and Their Benefits
The beauty behind personalized pins is that you are in control of the design process. In addition to creating custom artwork to fit your specifications, Lapel Pins R Us can help you choose the size, number, and style of pin that best represents your company, group or team.
Some of our most popular styles of pins include:
Soft Enamel. Sports teams, businesses, and organization love the look, versatility, and affordability of soft enamel. Raised and recessed metals depict your custom design. Up to seven colors of enamel paints are filled one at a time into the grooves and fired at 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cloisonné. Similar to fine jewelry, cloisonné pins are the type of classy adornment that accentuates a person's wardrobe. Sophisticated hotels, day spas, retail establishments, and banks are a few of the types of customers who appreciate cloisonné. Two bronze die-cut molds help create a custom lapel pin rich in detail. Areas of the pin are then one at a time filled with a glass-like powdered substance and fired at 1600 degrees Fahrenheit. Each pin is then hand polished which enhances their brilliant shine and increases their perceived value.
Die Struck. Commonly used for years of service and employee awards, die struck pins come in a variety of finishes that help give designs character and depth. Made from iron, brass or copper, cutting molds are created before the plating process. Plating color choices include: high polished gold metal, antique gold, high polished silver metal, antique silver, polished copper, antique copper, polished black metal, and black nickel.
Offset Photographic Printed. Created from a digital file, offset photographic printed lapel pins are ideal for designs that incorporate gradients, drop shadows or other subtle color changes.
Custom lapel pins are diverse. Knowing what type best sums up your company, organization or team's needs helps you achieve the type of results necessary to be a success. Contact us today for a no obligation quote. Call 1-800-480-6822 toll-free or email info@lapelpinsrus.com.

Where can I find a Masonic/Rotary Lapel Pin like this?
I have seen many Masonic-only lapel pins and many Rotary-only ones. Does anyone know where I can get a combo one like this?:

I am not aware of one... I have never seen one. There is no connection between freemasonry and the rotary so you likely would have to make your own pin if you were looking to wear one
