Italian laser charms are created by laser
engraving machines that etch artwork, a logo, or
saying onto a stainless steel link. The artwork
is transferred to the link and appears in a very
dark gray color that stands in direct contrast
to the shiny steel.
Because the artwork is etched into the link, it
will not wear off. The quality and “readability” of
laser charms is typically excellent. Of course,
these charms do not contain any gold, but they
are still very popular for creating local or specialty
charms like school names, company logos, funny
phrases, and other custom art.
Most Italian laser charms are etched in the country
in which the charms are sold so that distributors
and retailers can offer quick turnaround times
for their clients. Many wholesalers also offer
stock laser charms. Interestingly, we have noticed
a significant number of unlicensed company and
sports trademarks being used on laser charms.
Many of the major manufacturers offer lines of
laser charms and a host of large online retailers
are capable of making custom laser charms.
