This is a prototype for my Christmas presents this year. I have a design for each family member, with a different animal engraving on the front. The pendant itself is hollow, to save money. Very Happy

I think I will make the engraving on the front about 1.5x-2x deeper. The back engraving is fine. However, the back curved in for some reason. I am not sure why - if it was during handling, I would expect the back to have broken entirely, not deformed.

Any ideas what went wrong?

Possible solutions:
1. Increase the thickness of the backplate.
2. Add a support lattice within the hollow space.
3. ???

Front:

Back:
