Hand Painted Italian Charms

If you're looking for the perfect gift, consider hand painted Italian charms. These are the perfect gift for those who love charm bracelets. Most especially, charms made by Pugster are extremely popular as fashion accessories. Pugster Italian charms are made of stainless steel and, in many styles, so that you're sure to find one that's right for you.

Each design goes through several hands

When you buy Italian charms from a seller who specializes in them, you will be very impressed. In fact, they are a real treat.

Usually, hand-painted Italian charms are created through a process whereby designs are hand painted on them in multistep fashion, which resulted in vibrant, one-of-a-kind, beautiful charms that have been carefully handcrafted. Indeed, they are a real treasure. Each design goes through several hands to make sure that quality is unmatched and uniqueness is without question.

Creating the Image on the Charm

The ideas for charms come from a variety of places. Sometimes, a manufacturer's in-house artist comes up with an idea based upon seasonal interests or current trends. Other times, a design is developed right from a customer suggestion or as a special request.

Once an idea has been developed, the design is first done as a digital image. A computer generates this image; that image is then transferred to a physical mold.

Creating the Charm Itself

The charm is onto its next step in creation with the fashioning of the actual charm link. Most often, gold plated charm face is soldered to stainless steel as a backing. This makes the charm itself much more durable and long lasting. This will help ensure that it will be around for years to come, perhaps even passed on to the next generations.

Hand-Painting the Charm

Before the charm is hand-painted, an artist takes the mold of the chosen design and uses a computerized matching system so that desired color and you can be matched exactly. Using enamel paints makes the charm color very rich, and can be done in every color imaginable.

The tool used to paint the charm is needle sized, tiny, and exact. Its size allows intricate detail and complex designs on the small face of the charm. This can be done without compromising the quality of the look in the least; the charm itself is still hand-painted. Once the charm has been painted, it's given an epoxy coating to protect and provide luster and sheen.
