Smiling Golden Retriever - Brass Pet Tag / Dog Tag, Customizable Design

【Introduction】 Golden Retriever Portrait Pet Tag, Blank on the front / Customizable text on the back, Crafted from red and yellow brass. Includes complimentary engraving for one name and phone number. Please discuss any special engraving requests with the designer. Custom portraits are also available. A small design fee will apply for cartoon-style illustrations. 【Engraving Customization Guide】 All lowercase English letters will be in uppercase (e.g., DOGGY/KITTY). Uppercase English letters are approximately 3-3.5mm in height. Lowercase English letters are approximately 1.5-2mm in height. Numbers are approximately 1.5-2mm in height. Stamping is done purely by hand, not by machine. Letter alignment may not be perfectly precise (e.g., exact equidistant spacing between letters / perfect centering of text). Please refrain from ordering if these details are a concern, to avoid unmet expectations. 【Notes】 The accompanying keychain is a gold-plated iron accessory. Over time, due to humidity, oxidation, or wear, the plating may fade. This is normal. For those concerned, an upgrade to a brass keychain is available for an additional fee. Brass keychains do not suffer from fading. However, due to their lower elasticity compared to iron, please be mindful of the wire gauge when attaching them, as excessive force may lead to the keychain not closing securely due to metal fatigue. 【Product Contents & Packaging】 Pet Tag x1, Small Copper Ring x1, Plated Iron Keychain x1, High-Quality Zipper Bag x1, Kraft Paper Bag x1 【Add-on Purchase - Please combine with your main order, do not place separate orders】 1.

Its color will change over time or with wear, which is part of its unique charm. Those who appreciate a vintage, nostalgic aesthetic may choose to preserve the naturally oxidized, aged look of brass. However, be aware that if left completely unworn or uncared for, it can eventually turn almost black (similar to sterling silver). ◆ For those who prefer their brass jewelry to remain bright and new, various maintenance methods can help restore its color or slow down the tarnishing process. ◆ Regular wear and the natural friction it causes can keep brass shining like new. However, areas that are not easily rubbed (such as crevices or grooves) will still darken. ◆ The most convenient and quickest way to remove oxidation is with **toothpaste / dish soap**. Add water to create lather and gently scrub or rub. The jewelry's shine can be restored in a short time. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly afterward. ◆ Dipping a dry cloth in a small amount of brass polish/cream and wiping can quickly restore shine. The protective luster created after polishing helps to delay the next oxidation. Remember to wash again with dish soap after polishing for a cleaner finish. The downside is that brass polish has a rather unpleasant smell. ◆ If not wearing for an extended period, store in a well-sealed container such as a zipper bag. ◆ Avoid wearing with other metal jewelry, as friction and impact can cause scratches. ◆ Do not expose to water, liquids, or chemical agents, as this can cause chemical reactions that lead to rapid darkening of the metal.
