NEW! Soldered Layered Blanks  

  

If you love the layered look that soldering provides but don't want to play with fire, you're going to love our newest blanks! 

  


We're excited to finally have these Soldered Layered Blanks in stock. Customers have been asking for them for years! After receiving our first order, we tested them and found they didn't quite have enough solder to withstand stamping. The new batch is ready to rock! They come in two metal combinations (copper/sterling and sterling/sterling) and four different shapes. 

 

Here's the thing: you are not stamping on the top layer before it's soldered to the bottom, so you have to be careful not to stamp too hard or too many times on the top blank. This can disjoin the solder and cause the blanks to come apart. 

 

We got our best results stamping one design or one small word on the top blank, leaving the solder safely joined. The period/dot stamp applies so much impact that the top blank is likely to pop off, so we don't recommend using it. 

 

These blanks are all soldered by hand, so if you happen to get a rare one that pops off, send it back to Customer Service and we will be happy to send you a replacement.

We recommend using the Hole Punch Plier to attach your jump ring.
