Description
The Bartow County Sheriff’s Office serves Bartow County in northwest Georgia, with Cartersville as the county seat. This badge carries the Georgia Sheriff’s Association emblem at its center rather than a state seal.
Shape & Base: A polished gold five-point star sits inside a wide gold outer ring, joined to it by a ball finial at each point. The star arms are edged with a beaded border and left plain across their faces, and the ring carries an engraved wheat-sheaf panel at each side, filling the space between the two lettering arcs.
Center: A small circular medallion sits at the heart of the star. Its gold ring carries raised lettering reading GEORGIA across the top and SHERIFF’S ASSOCIATION around the bottom, filled black. Inside sits the association emblem struck in relief: a three-column arch with a banner across it and a figure standing beneath, all raised gold with no enamel behind it.
Ring Lettering: The outer ring is the badge’s main text field, carrying large raised black lettering reading SHERIFF’S across the top arc and OFFICE across the bottom arc. On the star itself, a gold scroll panel above the seal reads SHERIFF’S with OFFICE beneath it, and a curved band arcs around the lower half of the seal reading BARTOW, GA, and COUNTY separated by raised dots.
Tonal Detail: This badge works in a single metal with no color enamel anywhere on it. Black enamel fills every lettering zone — both ring arcs, the star banners, the county band, and the seal ring — and nothing else. The arch emblem, the wheat-sheaf panels, and the beading all read through relief depth alone.
Finish Quality: Polished gold carries the ring, the star, the banners, the seal, and the ball finials, with no secondary plating tone. The star-in-circle construction leaves the ring reading as a separate element from the star it holds, and the emblem is struck fine enough to separate the arch columns and the figure beneath at badge scale. For another gold star-in-circle badge with a lettered outer ring, see the Washington Parish Sheriff’s Office badge.

🛡 Authorized Purchase & Credential Verification
Badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement and public-safety buyers must provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. We do not sell agency-named badges for personal use.
Custom and fictional designs — for example, a made-up department like “Town of Western Hope Police” — are welcome, as are designs where you change the agency or department name to your own.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order a custom metal badge like the Bartow County Sheriff design?
Yes. Owl Badges produces die-struck metal badges for sheriff’s offices nationwide. This star-in-circle style can be ordered as shown, or the center emblem, the ring lettering, and the county band can be changed to your own agency. There is no setup fee and no mold fee.
Can you make a badge with no color enamel like this one?
Yes. This badge uses black enamel only to fill the lettering, with no color fields anywhere. The arch emblem, the wheat-sheaf side panels, and the beading all read through relief depth alone. A single-tone badge like this is a clean traditional option, and we can strike it in gold, silver, or an antique finish.
Can you put an association or organization emblem at the center instead of a state seal?
Yes. The medallion here carries an association emblem rather than a state seal, struck as raised gold with the organization name around its ring. We can build an association, academy, or department emblem the same way from artwork you supply. Agencies are responsible for confirming they are authorized to use a given organization’s mark.
How long does production take for a badge like this?
Custom metal badges take approximately 8 to 14 weeks after proof approval, covering tooling, striking, plating, and finishing. A badge with a lettered outer ring, engraved side panels, and a relief emblem sits toward the longer end of that window. Your design is confirmed on a free proof before any tooling is cut.
How much does a custom metal badge like this cost?
Estimated pricing runs from about $150 each at single quantities down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes, with no setup fee and no mold fee. The star-in-circle construction and the relief detail place a badge like this at the detailed end of the range, even without color enamel. Final pricing is confirmed with a free quote.
Do I need credentials to order a badge with the Bartow County Sheriff name on it?
Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency name — including the Bartow County Sheriff’s Office — are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives, and require proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter. If you change the emblem and county name to your own, no credentials are needed.
