## Medals shaped around the celebration

Carnival medals carry parade themes, club identity and local traditions in a colorful, collectible format. Crowns, masks, mascots, city symbols and anniversary dates can be combined with custom outlines, cutouts and dimensional detail for Mardi Gras krewes, festivals and community events.

## Coordinate relief, color and neckwear

Choose crisp 2D artwork, sculpted 3D elements or a combination of both. Bright or antique plating can be paired with enamel, glitter, translucent color, printed detail or a metal-only treatment. Compose the medal with its ribbon, lanyard, bead chain or cord so the complete piece works when worn or presented.

## From event artwork to finished medal

The artwork defines lettering, relief, color areas, cutouts and attachment points before tooling. Die striking suits clear raised and recessed details; zinc-alloy casting accommodates more complex outlines and deeper forms. After finishing, the selected attachment is assembled and the medal is checked for detail, color and secure connections.

## Plan your edition

Medals are available in 2-4 inch formats, with custom sizes also possible. The minimum order is 50 pieces and typical production is 12-18 business days, excluding shipping. Send the event theme, logo, date, intended quantity and delivery destination. For royalty, sponsors or limited editions, coordinate the metal finish, neckwear and presentation box with the occasion.

## Design considerations

Build the parade theme into the piece with recognizable elements such as a crown, mask, mascot or anniversary date. Krewes, festival organizers and sponsors can coordinate the outline, neckwear and presentation for the same edition.

**Can carnival medals be shaped like masks or parade floats?** 

Yes. We can make custom outlines such as masks, floats, and mascots. Slender details, sharp points, and openings need enough metal support. We recommend a forming process after reviewing the artwork.

**Can carnival medals have layered pieces?** 

Yes. Layered pieces or decorative inserts can give the design more depth. Extra layers add thickness, weight, and assembly steps, so check your budget and ribbon capacity at the same time.

**What should I consider when a carnival medal has many colors?** 

Fine color areas and gradients may need printing instead of enamel. We identify which parts to fill and which to print so lettering stays readable in production.

**Can carnival medals have a glitter edge?** 

Yes. We can use glitter or a printed effect in selected areas. The intensity varies with lighting.

**What are your standard custom medal sizes and production times?** 

Medals typically measure 2–4 inches and take 12–18 business days to produce, excluding shipping. We confirm size and timing against the artwork, quantity, process, weight, ribbon strength, and budget.

**Can event medal ribbons use Pantone colors and full-color gradients?** 

We offer solid-color woven ribbons, screen printing, and dye sublimation. Gradients require a suitable printing process, and fabric affects the result. We confirm the artwork and ribbon dimensions together with the medal attachment.
