Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order a custom metal badge like the Tennessee Constable Association design?

Yes. Owl Badges produces die-struck metal badges for associations, agencies, and organizations nationwide. This six-point star style can be ordered as shown, or the seal and the lettering can be changed to your own organization and state. There is no setup fee and no mold fee.

Can you make badges for an association rather than a single agency?

Yes. Association badges are a regular part of what we produce, and this one is a good example: it names a statewide membership organization rather than a county office, so the star carries the association name where a county badge would carry a jurisdiction. Member numbering, rank lines, and chapter names can all be worked into the same design.

Can you fit a long name like CONSTABLE ASSOCIATION onto a star badge?

Yes. The lower arc here wraps a long name around the seal rather than compressing it onto a banner, which is what keeps it legible at badge scale. We lay out the arc against your actual name length on the proof, so you can see the letter spacing before any tooling is cut.

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 stippled arm fill, a beaded border, curved struck lettering, and a multi-color seal 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 struck texture and the number of enamel fields in the seal place a badge like this at the detailed end of the range. Final pricing is confirmed with a free quote.

Do I need authorization to order a badge with the Tennessee Constable Association name on it?

Yes. Badges bearing a real organization name — including the Tennessee Constable Association — are sold only to that organization or its authorized representatives, and require proof of membership, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter. Agencies and organizations are responsible for confirming they are authorized to use a given state seal on their badges. If you change the seal and organization name to your own, no authorization is needed.
