HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT TYPE OF ENAMEL PIN
Psssst........there is no "RIGHT"
Soft Enamel
This is what a soft enamel pin looks like. You can see the ridges. The details stand out more. We find some designs pop more with soft enamel. The depth in the soft enamel technique makes it appear more 2D. Other pins, we don't think matter as much. It really is the buyer's preference.
Hard Enamel
Now that you know that soft enamel pins stand out because of the ridges in the design. You can easily tell this pin has a smooth flat surface. Hard Enamel pins are smooth with no texture. This pin's design was best done in hard enamel. Had we done it in soft enamel the glitter would have been lost in the ridges. Some people feel hard enamel has a higher percieved value, but we don't agree. Soft enamel or hard enamel should be choose by each pin's artwork. We will not pick a side.
