Charm real gold

Kuvaus

All charms are made based on a .stl file, which means you need to provide the scan in 3D as you are accustomed to for pregnancy figurines. How does it work?

Pregnancy Charm
The pregnancy charms can be made based on an existing scan. If your customer has a scan with arms, they can choose to have the charm cast with arms, but it is also possible to digitally remove the arms. Please note that this is only possible with a charm where the arms are facing downwards (see gallery). So, it is possible to order a charm with a scan made by you, but it can also be supplied if a scan was made by another company.

Coins Hand-Footprint
The impression charms are made based on a scan of an existing impression, such as an impression in plaster or clay. You scan the impression with your 3D scanner and send us this raw scan. We digitally place the impression in the coin. If you do not want to purchase digital editing, make sure to provide the charm ready for printing, in the correct format, and already placed in the coin.

Other Charms
For charms like the first shoe or a teddy bear, the original object must also be scanned and provided. Tip: most scanners have trouble scanning small objects, so make sure to scan the object together with something larger with a lot of texture, such as a wooden base or a coat rack.

If you choose to provide your files print-ready, make sure that your format (15 or 18MM) is already set and the ring with an inner diameter of at least 2mm is attached to the charm. For the coin, the imprint must already be placed on the coin in the correct format, at the correct position, and optionally with a name. The hole should have a minimum diameter of 2MM, and the thickness of the coin must be at least 1.6. Try to enhance or deepen visible folds in the hands and feet so that they may still be visible on the small charm. This may look ‘exaggerated’ digitally on the model.
