Arleen Global Export Industry Sourcing Guide
Jewelry & Accessories Suppliers in India: Wholesale Sourcing Guide
Jewelry sourcing requires precise material and finish definitions. Similar-looking products can differ greatly in base metal, plating thickness, stone quality and durability.
Define base material
State silver, gold alloy, brass, stainless steel, zinc alloy or other base material and required fineness where applicable.
Specify plating and finish
Plating color, process, thickness expectations and protective coating should be documented where relevant.
Define stones or decorative elements
Natural, synthetic or imitation stones should be clearly identified, including size, shape, color and setting style.
Use exact dimensions
Chain length, ring size, pendant size, weight range and other dimensions help prevent sample mismatch.
Plan wear and durability testing
Tarnish, plating adhesion, stone retention, clasp function and restricted substances may be relevant depending on market.
Control sample approval
Approve workmanship, polish, color, weight and packaging before bulk production.
Specify branding
Logo stamps, cards, pouches, boxes, barcodes and retail labels should be included in the RFQ.
Verify product claims
Precious-metal purity, gemstone or certification claims should be supported by appropriate evidence.
