This page is for makers listing fridge magnets on JADUZ, and for the AI assistant helping them. The general rules on names, honest claims and the reply format are on the main JADUZ listing guide. Magnets are small, often bought as gifts or souvenirs, and close-up photos make them look bigger than they are, so the size and the magnet itself need clear words.
What to measure and how to state it
- Size: width by height at the widest points, for example "3 × 2 in (7.6 × 5 cm)".
- Thickness: for example "0.4 in (1 cm)".
- Weight: in grams, for example "25 g". A heavy piece on a weak magnet slides down the fridge door.
- Sets: how many pieces, whether all the designs are the same or each is different, and whether the buyer can choose.
Show one photo of the magnet beside a hand or a familiar object so the buyer can see the real size.
The magnet itself
Say what kind of magnet is on the back if you know it: a dark grey ferrite (ceramic) disc, or a small silver neodymium one, which is much stronger. Say how it is fixed: glued, set into the back, or sewn in. Then test it on a fridge and write what you saw, for example "holds itself and two sheets of paper". Do not write "super strong" without saying what it holds.
Materials and techniques to name
Name the material honestly: terracotta or clay, wood, MDF (say MDF, not wood), resin, polymer clay, felt or fabric, jute, papier-mâché or metal. Name the technique: hand-painted, carved, moulded, embroidered or laser cut and then hand-painted. If it is laser cut, say so; the hand painting is still your work. Name the finish, such as varnish, if there is one.
Popular motifs include rickshaw art, boats, folk patterns and local landmarks. Describe what is painted, not just "traditional design".
Safety and care
Add a plain warning: "Not a toy. Keep away from young children." Swallowed magnets are dangerous, and small parts are a choking risk. Do not call a magnet child-safe or call the paint non-toxic unless you have the paint maker's statement for it. Strong neodymium magnets can also damage bank cards, so say "keep away from cards" for those.
For care: wipe with a dry cloth; clay and resin can chip if dropped; painted pieces are not waterproof unless sealed and tested.

Questions buyers ask
- How big is it in real life?
- Will it hold paper, or slide down the fridge?
- Is it fragile, and how is it packed?
- Is it suitable as a gift, and does it come in a box?
- Will my set look exactly like the photo, or do designs vary?
- Is it safe around small children?
Words to avoid
Leave out "child-safe", "non-toxic" and "unbreakable" unless you can prove them, "super strong" without saying what it holds, "best quality", "100% original" with nothing behind it, "only 3 left" unless your stock shows it, invented discounts, ALL CAPS and emojis.
