Soft enamel

Soft enamel is a manufacturing process used in making jewelry, badges, and collectibles. It involves creating a metal base with recessed areas where colored enamel is applied. Unlike hard enamel, soft enamel fills these recessed spaces but remains slightly lower than the metal surface, giving a textured feel. The enamel is then baked to harden, and the piece is usually polished. This method allows for distinct, crisp lines and vibrant colors, making it popular for detailed designs. Soft enamel provides a slightly raised, tactile surface that adds to the visual and tactile appeal of the finished product.
