Discussion page for ongoing new etched item tests. New discussion will be added as items go into development.
One of the notable variations in production involves what we call "frost". Some parts will have their lower areas display a "frosty" type finish, as opposed to smooth. We have no control over this here, and we don't consider them "undesirable" either... in fact, some items look darned cool this way.
We won't really be able to effectively honor requests for "frosty" or not parts, so you might get either or both when you order (although for items like bits that have matching sides, they'll be the same finish.) This does not affect items that don't have decoration, such as plain buckles.
