Bullion patches are hand-embroidered emblems made from coiled gold and silver metallic wire. The wire is stitched over a padded base, which gives each crest a raised, three-dimensional shine that machine embroidery can’t reproduce. Golf clubs, fraternities, Masonic lodges, honor guards, and family heritage projects across the United States choose bullion when an emblem needs to look as important as what it represents.
At Custom Iron On Patch, we’ve been making custom patches for American brands, clubs, and organizations since 2010. Bullion is the most hands-on work we do. Every wire segment in your crest is cut and placed by hand, one piece at a time, by artisans with 10+ years of goldwork experience. A typical 3-inch blazer crest takes about 24 hours of handwork before it reaches inspection.
You don’t need perfect artwork to get started. Send us a logo, a sketch, a photo of an old crest you want recreated, or a family coat of arms. Our design team will turn it into a production-ready layout and send you a free digital proof before any wire is cut. Once you approve, we handcraft your custom bullion crests and ship them free to any address in the USA.

Bullion crest patches have been the mark of rank, membership, and tradition for centuries. Here’s who orders them from us today across the United States:
A bullion blazer badge on the breast pocket is a classic look for golf clubs, country clubs, and member-guest events from Augusta to Scottsdale.
Burgees, anchors, and club crests worked in gold wire suit yacht clubs from Newport and Annapolis to San Diego. Gold bullion holds up well on navy blazers worn for regattas and commodore’s balls.
A fraternity bullion crest on a chapter blazer marks initiation, graduation, or a milestone anniversary. Greek organizations order them for active members and alumni alike.
Masonic bullion patches, Shriner emblems, and fraternal regalia carry symbols that deserve fine detail. Hand-placed wire captures compasses, crowns, and lettering cleanly.
Bullion rank insignia, unit crests, and bullion aviator wings for dress uniforms, retirement shadow boxes, and veteran association blazers.
Departments use bullion for honor guard uniforms, memorial services, and award ceremonies, the moments where standard patches don’t feel formal enough.
Private academies and university alumni groups order custom blazer crest patches for school dress uniforms, reunion blazers, and graduation keepsakes.
We recreate heraldic coats of arms and family crests as bullion patches for weddings, reunions, and heritage gifts, often from nothing more than a vintage photograph.
Designers and boutique labels in New York, Los Angeles, and Miami use gold bullion patches on blazers, caps, bags, and denim to add handcrafted luxury detail.
Luxury hotels, private clubs, and corporate executive programs use bullion crests on concierge and front-of-house uniforms for an elevated brand presence.
Pilot wings, captain’s insignia, and nautical rank badges have been made in bullion wire for generations. We craft them for flight schools and maritime academies.
Centennials, championship seasons, and organizational milestones get a permanent heirloom keepsake that lasts as long as the memory.

Bullion patches are hand-embroidered emblems made from coiled metallic wire in gold, silver, or color. The wire is stitched over padding to create a raised, shiny, three-dimensional crest. They’re used on blazers, dress uniforms, and ceremonial wear.
Most modern bullion patches use metal wire with a gold or silver finish rather than solid precious metal. This keeps them durable and affordable while giving them a traditional royal look.
Bullion patches are handmade with metallic wire and look raised and reflective, which makes them ideal for formal wear. Embroidered patches are machine-stitched with thread, cost less, and are made for everyday use and regular washing.
Quality bullion holds its shine for many years. Like any metallic material, it can dull with humidity or heavy handling. Storing garments in breathable bags and keeping crests dry prevents most tarnishing.
We don’t recommend iron-on backing for bullion. Heat can discolor the wire, and the patches are heavier than standard ones. Sew-on, butterfly clutch, or hook-and-loop backings hold them securely.
Our minimum for bullion patches is 10 pieces. Per-piece pricing drops as quantity increases, so clubs and chapters ordering in bulk get the best value.
Standard production takes 2–3 weeks after you approve your proof, and rush options are available. Because every crest is handmade, we recommend ordering early for weddings, graduations, and conventions.
Most blazer crests are 2.5 to 3.5 inches wide. We’ll recommend the best size for your garment and design when we send your proof.
Yes. Send clear photos of the front and back, plus its measurements. We’ll match the wire colors, layout, and proportions as closely as possible.
Yes. We ship free to all 50 states, from New York and Chicago to Dallas and Los Angeles.
