Custom
Stamped Jewelry
 Personalize a ring, pendant, or bracelet with words stamped into
sterling silver, copper, or brass. There are endless options for this,
including having names go all the way around a cuff bracelet or
ring. Other options are tag pendants, a dangle on a chain bracelet, or
a keychain.

Font
& Border Options
You have your choice of font size: small, medium, and large capital
block letters, or a more decorative and whimsical font called Kismet.
The Kismet letters are lowercase, about the same size as "Medium" block
caps.
 I
can stamp a border design around certain tag styles. The border options are pictured to the
left (click for enlargement). I also have a heart stamp that is not pictured. A border design adds $4
Also available is the option of having a
hammered border, which adds $2.
The text can go across the center of the tag, or
along the edge like the brass oval and copper washer pictured above.
See below for text orientation diagram.

Custom Texture Sheets
  If you are interested in a logo, custom font, or unusual characters (Greek,
Chinese, etc.) I can convert your black & white image into a
three-dimensional surface. The texture sheet is then applied to
silver clay to create a tag with your custom
image imprinted in it. The texture sheet costs $10 but can be used to
make multiple tags and comes in handy for family crests, large monograms, or
other designs unavailable in traditional metal stamps.

Chains
and Cords

clasp. You can upgrade the clasp to one of the others pictured here.
See Add-Ons chart for pricing.
Please note that not all chains/cords are available
in every length. An extender chain can be added for $1 per inch.
