Description
The Luling Police Department serves its oil-heritage town on the San Marcos River in Caldwell County, a short run south of the county seat at Lockhart in Central Texas. This chief badge announces command rank the traditional way: a four-star bar at the base of a two-tone oval built around a silver Texas map and the state seal.
Shape and Base: The oval is wrapped edge to edge in a gold laurel wreath border, with a gold sunburst ray field filling the ground inside it. A broad silver arc crowns the top of the badge, carrying CHIEF in black block letters.
Center Design: A large silver map of Texas dominates the field, carrying a blue enamel State of Texas seal medallion at its center — a blue ring lettered THE STATE OF TEXAS around a white lone star. The silver map against the gold rays gives the badge its two-tone signature.
Banner Lettering: LULING POLICE crosses the lower field on a black-edged silver banner, with a silver TEXAS panel beneath it. At the bottom point sits the detail that sets this badge apart: a polished rank bar carrying four silver stars, the traditional insignia of a chief of police.
Tonal Detail: Gold carries the wreath, rays, and oval body while silver takes the arc, map, banners, and stars — a clean division that keeps the rank lettering and the seal medallion reading sharply at uniform distance.
Finish Quality: Each badge is die-struck in solid metal, plated in two-tone silver and gold, enamel-filled at the seal, and fitted with a pin-back and safety clasp. For the county lawman one town north on the same courthouse rolls, see the Caldwell County Sheriff 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 you make a chief badge with a four-star rank bar like this Luling design?
Yes. The star bar at the base of this badge is a standard option we strike for command ranks — four stars for a chief, or one to three for assistant chiefs and deputy chiefs, matched to however your department structures its command staff. The artwork team sets the bar with your city name and seal on a free proof before tooling begins.
How much does a two-tone chief badge like this cost?
Estimated pricing runs from about $150 each at low quantities down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes, with no setup fee and no mold fee. Command badges are usually ordered in ones and twos, and single-piece orders are welcome at the same estimate range with a free confirmed quote.
How long will a badge like this take to arrive?
Approximately 8 to 14 weeks after proof approval, covering die tooling, striking in solid metal, two-tone plating, the blue enamel fill of the seal medallion, and hand-finishing of the laurel wreath border and star bar.
Can the star count or the top title be changed for other command ranks?
Yes. The silver arc can read ASSISTANT CHIEF, DEPUTY CHIEF, CAPTAIN, or any command title, with the star bar adjusted to match — and the whole command set strikes from one die so every badge in the chain stays uniform in size and finish.
Can we use our own city seal instead of the Texas state seal in the map?
Yes. The medallion inside the silver Texas map can carry your municipal seal, your department emblem, or another state seal, in full-color enamel. Agencies outside Texas can swap the map itself for their own state outline while keeping the wreath-and-rays layout.
Do we need credentials to order a chief badge with a real city name on it?
Yes. Badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives, and command-rank badges are no exception. Buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Fictional or fully customized designs with your own name are welcome without that step.
