[Healeys] 3000 Mk III cloisonne front badge

[Jean Caron]

High cost and long turnaround will always beat the cheap and poor quality that is sold to us out of China. I have never used these guys but if and when you want the best, it usually takes time and money.

Team.

These people are the best in the world but their business model is so old school it is quaint.

I've used them for a BJ8 Mk III and a 100/6 front shroud badge and they are both excellent.  The cost is high and the turn around long. This is because it is a genuine 'Cottage' industry run by a very small team.

I will put up some photo galleries on my website later this weekend with further links etc.

Can't help much, but I recall looking into this years ago as I also have a badge with no enamel.  It's next-to-impossible to find someone that still does this work and, IIRC, it would cost as much to have a badge re-done as it would to buy new (if not more with two-way shipping charges).  If you find someone who can do it please let us all know.  The re-pops are pretty good (they ought to be for $200+).



Technically, it's "champleve'".

I am interested in obtaining an A-H 3000 Mk III front badge, in cloisonne.

I have a perfect one which has no enamel or cloisonne "in-fill".

I would like to get either an intact replacement or some info on having my current badge restored...in cloisonne.  Failing all of that, I'll just get her repainted!
