Custom pet brooch
Custom pet brooch
Handcrafted by Dani to create an outcome that is as unique as the pets they represent.
Whether you want to spoil a dog lover friend or yourself, or perhaps ease the pain after the loss of a pet, personalized dog or cat brooch is a wonderful choice.
Size
Generally, the average custom pet brooch/ pin measures approx 3- 4cm in diameter. If you wish for them to be smaller or larger, please add a note at the checkout or let Dani know when you send through photos.
Pet photos
You’ll need to send through at least a few photos of the pet that you want the sculpture modelled on.
Dani requests that you send through a few photos of your pet, and is happy to communicate via email (hello@pawfectlove.com.au), Instagram, or Facebook.
Production and processing time
The average turnaround time for custom orders is under a week, plus shipping. However, in peak periods (eg Christmas, Mother’s Day), this May be as long as 3 weeks. If there is a specific date you need the item by, feel free to make contact to avoid disappointment.
Style
Whilst the style is ‘lifelike’, there are limitations due to the size and materials used, making the outcome an artistic likeness, rather than a perfect replica.
Dani prides herself on being able to capture the traits that make each pet unique. To help with this, please let her know if your pet has any signature facial expressions, specific markings etc that you want included.
Base Materials
The pet faces are sculpted from polymer clay, baked to harden. Depending on colours, some pets will then have details added with acrylic paint, before it is sealed.
Brooch has a stainless steel or silver plated non-locking bar pin.
Lapel pin uses a gold plated brass tie tack.
