Dark metal industrial badge with a gear, entwined cables, and a glowing orange center.

Variation 1 Revised: “Fused Ember Gear — Industrial Edition” Overall Shape: Circular badge, matte black base, about 1200×1200px. Edge is thick, flat, industrial steel ring with subtle texture—think worn iron or cast steel, no shine. Central Motif: Single, heavy-duty gear (8 teeth), steel-gray with textured grain—slightly rough, utilitarian, battle-tested look. At the center, instead of fire, a dimly glowing ember: a soft, warm orange halo behind the gear’s hub, almost like a heat source inside the metal rather than flames licking the edges. The glow should be subtle, almost like a quiet heartbeat of warmth. Weave Element: Two robust, intertwined metal cables or rods, dark steel, wrapping partly around the gear at 2 and 8 o’clock, with visible rivets or bolts at the crossings. This is industrial weaving, not delicate threads. Inscription Placement: Across the top half inside the ring, engraved and filled with muted gray paint: “EMBERLOOM FOUNDRY” in bold, condensed sans-serif, sharp edges, no frills. Across the bottom half inside the ring, engraved: “FORGED BETWEEN DREAM AND DOUBT” in the same font but slightly smaller, spaced out evenly for balance. Color Palette: Entire badge is monochrome shades: black, dark and medium grays, soft white highlights for depth. Ember glow: very muted orange, barely peeking through textured steel, no bright spots or sparks. Style Notes: Matte finish overall, no gloss or shine. Subtle embossing for text, very slight beveled edges for shadows. See more
