Start with the metal, shape and finish

A chain needs to drape well; a ring needs a comfortable profile; an earring needs the right weight. We review those details with you before sampling. Our guide to 316L stainless steel explains the material choices.

Build your stainless steel collection

Browse the styles below, then tell us what you would change. You can also send an original drawing or a reference sample.

Necklaces and pendants

Choose the chain profile, length and clasp, then add a pendant or keep the design simple. We check how the links move and how the finished piece sits when worn.

Earrings

Studs, hoops and drops each need a different balance of weight and fit. Tell us the size and closure you want; we will review the post, setting and finish before making a sample.

Rings

From plain bands to sculptural shapes, we work through the profile, size range and surface finish with you. A sample lets you check comfort, weight and proportions before placing a bulk order.

Bracelets and bangles

Develop chain bracelets, cuffs or closed bangles around your size range. We review clasp strength, hinge movement and the space needed for stones or engraving.

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.

PVD coating, specified for your collection

Our in-house PVD facility lets us coordinate polishing, coating and color approval. We agree the coating specification with you before production, including any testing your market requires.

Understand the coating layers

Our stainless steel gold-color specification uses a 0.5 μm titanium nitride (TiN) layer and a gold top layer of 0.03–0.10 μm. These are separate layers; the TiN thickness is not the gold thickness.

Confirm the color, layer specification and test requirements with your quotation. Wear performance also depends on the design, surface preparation and how the piece is used.

Set realistic care expectations

Stainless steel and PVD coatings offer useful resistance to everyday moisture. They are not a promise against every chemical, abrasion or swimming condition. We can discuss testing and suitable care instructions for the finished design.

Check the details that customers notice

Smooth edges, secure settings, reliable clasps and a consistent finish all matter. We use the approved sample and written specifications to guide inspection, rather than relying on a material name alone.

Care and finish

What affects the life of a PVD finish?

The coating is one part of the answer. Surface preparation, contact with other jewelry and exposure to chemicals also affect wear. Agree on a test plan and care guidance before making durability claims for your collection.

What to discuss before choosing a coating

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.

Color and detail

Use color, texture and small construction details to give the collection a clear direction. We can compare samples before you commit to a finish.

Add color with resin enamel

Resin enamel adds color to recessed areas, charms and pendants. We review the metal borders, fill depth and color with you so the design can be filled and finished cleanly.

Review the filled sample

The resin is applied to the prepared piece and cured. Check the sample for color, fill level, bubbles and clean edges; a screen reference alone cannot show all of those details.

Choose your starting point

You can develop an original design or adapt an existing style. Either way, we begin with the metal, dimensions, finish and target quantity so the quotation has a clear basis.

1. Explore Your Design Possibilities

Starting with references?

Choose a few styles and tell us what you like about them: the silhouette, chain, texture or color. We can help turn those preferences into a brief for your own collection.

Already have a drawing?

Send the drawing with dimensions and notes on stones, closures and finish. We will review the construction and prepare CAD views for you to check before sampling.

Compare plating colors

Screen colors are only a guide. Use a physical reference or an approved plated sample to agree the shade and finish.

Keep a reference for repeat orders

Retain an approved color sample with the order specification. It gives both teams a useful reference when the collection is reordered or extended.

Chain width, link shape and length change both the look and the weight of a piece. Options include curb, bead, box, paperclip, rope and snake chains.

Confirm the clasp, extension length and pendant opening together so the parts fit and move as intended.

Compare pearl size, shape, luster and matching across a pair or strand. Tell us whether the design calls for freshwater pearls or an imitation pearl component.

Round, button, oval and baroque shapes give different results. We can review the available components and the drilling or setting needed for your design.

Choose the stone type, dimensions and color before finalizing the setting. If a reference photo is your starting point, we can discuss practical material options.

Check stone spacing, setting height and security on the sample. The final specification should identify the stone material rather than relying on appearance alone.

A polished surface reflects light sharply; a brushed or matte surface gives a softer result. We can sample a texture on the chosen metal before applying it to the collection.

Finishes include mirror polish, satin, sandblasted, hammered and wire-brushed textures. The shape and thickness of the piece help determine which process is suitable.

Send your logo or engraving artwork at the intended size. We check the available area and placement before adding it to the sample.

Fine lines and small lettering may need adjustment to remain legible. Approve the position, depth and appearance on the physical piece.

Packaging that fits the piece

Choose inserts and outer packaging around the jewelry dimensions. A good fit limits movement in transit without adding unnecessary bulk.

Boxes, pouches and display cards

Compare the material, color and print finish with your sales channel in mind. Send the artwork early so packaging can be checked alongside the jewelry.

Questions before you order

We work with both. The grade should be agreed for each component, including posts, chains and clasps. 316L contains molybdenum, which improves resistance to some forms of corrosion; it still contains nickel and should not be described as automatically nickel-free or allergy-proof.

For gold-color stainless steel projects, our stated specification is a 0.5 μm TiN layer with a 0.03–0.10 μm gold top layer. Confirm the final layers, shade and testing with your quotation.

Our standard starting point is 100 pieces per design and color. Smaller pilot quantities may be possible for selected styles. Tooling, components and finish affect the workable quantity, so ask us to confirm it for your brief.

Allow about 25–35 days for stainless steel samples and 35–45 days for bulk production after approval. Design changes, components and finishing can affect the schedule. We confirm timing for the order; transit time is separate.

Yes. Send drawings, dimensions or a reference sample. We can develop the CAD and sample from your brief, or discuss changes to an existing style.

Tell us the destination market and intended use. We agree the relevant material, nickel-release and coating tests before production, and can discuss factory audit documents separately. A factory audit is not a product test report.

The answer depends on the whole piece, including its coating, stones, adhesive and other components. Discuss the intended use and test requirements with us. Avoid blanket promises about swimming, chemicals or lifetime color retention.

We check the finished pieces against the approved sample and order specification, including dimensions, appearance, stone settings, closures and packing. Additional tests should be included in the agreed inspection plan.

Yes. We use the approved physical sample as a production reference. Sample charges, revisions and any credit against a later order are confirmed in the quotation.

Payment terms and freight are agreed with the quotation. Tell us your destination, packing requirements and preferred delivery date so we can discuss suitable shipping options.
