Starting a small jewelry brand

Choose the starting route for your first collection.

1. Select finished stock

Available finished styles can start from 1 piece per style, subject to the selected SKU, selling unit and live stock. This is a way to evaluate existing products before commissioning an original design.

2. Adapt an existing design

Review a logo, finish, stone or packaging change on a suitable existing style. Laser engraving, enamel and screen printing depend on the product material and available marking area. A stock MOQ does not automatically cover these changes.

3. Develop your own design

Send a reference and dimensions for a cutting, casting or hydraulic-press review. Standard production minimums are 100, 200 and 600 pieces respectively. Confirm quantity by design and any size, color or finish split in the quotation.

Using an existing mold generally avoids a new mold charge. New dedicated tooling is design-dependent; sample, revision, product, packaging and transport costs must be checked separately.

Development process

Clear steps.
Fewer surprises.

The earlier we understand your reference, target market and requirements, the faster we can guide material, process and construction decisions.

01

Brief

Send sketches or images, target price, quantity, sizes, colors, finish and packaging direction.

02

Feasibility & quotation

We review construction, steel grade, components, tooling, plating, MOQ and commercial requirements.

03

Sample

A sample helps confirm appearance, proportions, feel and production details.

04

Approval

Final specifications, packaging and acceptance points are confirmed before bulk production.

05

Production & inspection

Production follows the confirmed route, with checks matched to the approved requirements.

Materials & finish

Choose the specification for the project.

Stainless steel grade, plating, construction and testing should be selected together for the intended market, cost and wear requirements.

Important: a steel grade alone does not establish universal regulatory or market compliance. Tell us the destination market and required test standard when requesting a quote.

STANDARD STOCK

304 stainless steel

Used for most ready-stock programs; confirm the individual SKU specification.

CUSTOM PROJECT

316 / 316L stainless steel

Available for suitable projects and normally subject to custom-production MOQ.

GOLD-TONE FINISH

18K real-gold PVD

Vacuum plating is typically 0.03–0.06 μm, subject to the approved specification.

CONTROL

Sample & inspection

Appearance, dimensions and agreed requirements are checked against the approved reference.

MOQ guidance

MOQ depends on the production route.

These figures are practical starting points, not universal promises. Final MOQ follows the design, dimensions, finish, components, packaging and testing requirements.

Buyer questions

OEM / ODM jewelry manufacturing FAQ

What is the difference between OEM and ODM jewelry manufacturing?

OEM normally starts from the buyer’s drawing, sample or defined specification. ODM adds supplier-led development from a reference, concept or market direction. A project may combine both approaches.

What is the MOQ for custom stainless steel jewelry?

MOQ depends on the production route. As a working guide, cutting may start around 100 pieces per design, casting at 200, and stamping or hydraulic processes around 600. Final MOQ is confirmed after reviewing the design and finish.

Can CHARMOND produce 316L stainless steel jewelry?

Yes, 316 and 316L can be discussed for suitable custom projects. Most ready-stock items use 304 stainless steel, with the actual minimum confirmed from material availability, construction and the production route.

What information is needed for an OEM / ODM quote?

Send reference images or drawings, dimensions, quantity, target price, steel grade, finish, logo, packaging, destination market, testing needs and delivery timing. We can identify missing details during review.

Does stainless steel grade guarantee compliance?

No. Steel grade is only one part of a product specification. Market compliance depends on the complete product, coating, components and the applicable test method for the destination market.
