925 Sterling Silver Jewelry

Silver collections, developed around your design

Sterling silver contains 92.5% silver. It can be cast, formed, polished and plated for a range of designs, from fine chains to sculptural rings. We review weight, construction and finish before making your sample.

  • Polished, textured or plated finishes
  • Stone and pearl settings
  • Samples before bulk production

Work through the details before sampling

Small changes in thickness or setting height can alter the weight, feel and cost of a silver piece. We review the drawing with you and use the sample to check those decisions.

Explore the collection

Browse our 925 sterling silver styles for a starting point, or send your own design. Tell us the sizes, finish and quantity you need for each style.

Necklaces and pendants

Choose the chain length, link profile and pendant proportions together. We check the pendant opening and clasp so the finished necklace hangs and fastens as intended.

Earrings

Compare studs, hoops and drop shapes, then refine the weight, post and closure. For paired designs, we also check size, color and stone matching across the pair.

Rings

Decide the band profile, size range and setting before sampling. We check comfort, stone security and the space available for marks or engraving.

Bracelets and bangles

Develop a chain bracelet, cuff or bangle around your fit requirements. Clasp position, hinge movement and interior dimensions are reviewed on the physical sample.

How we plan production

A finished piece depends on more than the casting. We plan components, stone setting, polishing and plating together, with the approved sample as the reference at each stage.

From components to finished pieces

We coordinate the work your design needs, including mould making, metal forming, stone setting, polishing and finishing.

A schedule built around the design

Some components can be prepared at the same time. We identify those steps after reviewing the drawing and confirm a production schedule before the order begins.

Equipment matched to the job

CNC machining, laser cutting and hand finishing each suit different details. We choose the route around the metal, shape and finish, then check repeatability on the sample.

Practical help with difficult details

Thin sections, moving parts and stone settings need careful review. We discuss what can be made reliably and where a small design change could improve the result.

See how your collection would be made

Arrange a factory visit or a video discussion with our team. Bring a design or sample so we can walk through the production steps that matter to your order.

Discuss material sourcing for your order

If recycled content is part of your brief, ask us which material options and supporting documents are available for the specific order. The claim should match the material supplied.

From approved sample to production

Keep the approved sample and written specification together. They give both teams a reference for the material, weight, finish and inspection requirements.

Make the collection your own

Change the dimensions, stones, texture or engraving around your design. We will review the construction and explain the effect on sampling and cost.

Choose the right gold finish

Gold plating, gold vermeil and gold-filled construction describe different products. Start with the base metal and the way the gold layer is applied.

The name should match the construction

Gold plating and vermeil

Gold plating applies a gold coating to a base metal. Vermeil uses sterling silver as its base and must meet the applicable gold purity and thickness requirements in the market where it is sold. Brass with a gold coating is not vermeil.

Gold-filled is a different process

Gold-filled material has a mechanically bonded gold-alloy layer. It is not the same as electroplating. If your brief requires gold-filled components, confirm the construction and supporting specification before ordering.

Do not choose by the finish name alone. Compare the base metal, gold content, thickness, construction and care requirements against your price point.

Four decisions to make before ordering

Start with the wearer and the target price. Then agree the base metal, finish, test requirements and product description so your collection is presented accurately.

01

Choose the base metal first. Brass and sterling silver have different material costs and care needs; a gold-colored surface does not tell you what is underneath.

02

Approve the gold shade on a physical sample. Product photographs and screens can make the same finish look different.

03

Specify the coating and testing with the quotation. Avoid making a wear-life promise from thickness alone.

04

Prepare clear care instructions and material descriptions for your customers. Keep those details consistent with the order specification.
