Base Metal Jewelry Designs

Base Metal:

  • Copper
  • Brass
  • 304 Stainless Steel
  • 316L Stainless Steel
  • Silver

Plating: 14k/18k Gold Plating

Cheap base metal with gold-plated jewelry is very popular in recent 2 years due to its low price, simple retro style, and wide range of wearing scenes.

Many custom and wholesale manufacturers will mix these base metal materials to increase their profits. It’s hard to judge just from the outer appearance but need to do tests, which is very unfriendly to the inexperienced buyers.

Stainless Steel Jewelry

Stainless steel jewelry is very corrosion-resistant, it will not turn black like silver jewelry, or be allergic like copper jewelry, and it will be not like alloy jewelry which is toxic because it may contain lead.

The hardness of stainless steel jewelry is high, which is more suitable for processing simple styles without deformation.

Many fashion jewelry for men is also made of stainless steel.

Currently, 304 and 316L stainless steel are the most commonly used in the market, and the common used plating materials are 14K and18K gold.

The main factors affecting the price are the process, polishing, plating process (PVD or IP plating), and coating thickness.

K Gold with Gemstone/AAA Zircon

Karat gold material has high hardness and brightness, diverse colors, and can be firmly inlaid with various gemstones. So it can be made into many fashionable styles for every occasion.

Karat gold jewelry requires manufacturers to have advanced equipment and mature technical experience to make it textured and glamorous. There are 13 such K Gold jewelry manufacturers we cooperate with.

The Process of Customizing Fashion Jewelry from Manufacturers

  • Customization includes your jewelry design, material selection, and the LOGO carving.
  • If you have your own design manuscript, you can give it to us. If not, please directly provide the pictures. Our factory will help you to make a hand-drawn drawing and confirm with you the specific parameters of the product (length, width, diameter, etc.).

Sample making time: 7-10 days

Bulk production time: 15-25days

This time period is only for reference, and the specific time depends on the factory schedule and jewelry process. A factory has many other orders to be finished in peak season. And complex jewelry designs require multiple processes to complete, it also takes longer time.

  • Liquid metal is poured into the molds to create castings.
  • Once cooled, the castings are inspected for quality and then moved on to welding/polishing. If you want to inlay zircons or gems, it will be inlaid before polishing.
Accordion Content

To burnish the surface and maximize luster and shine, we will apply two methods to polish the jewelry–mechanically polishing and hand polishing.

The surface metal can be either K gold or imitation gold. And the coating thickness is determined by you. 

The most commonly used thickness is 0.025~0.03mil. Thicker the material is, higher the price will be, and the quality of the final product will be better.  1mil=1/1000inch=0.00254cm=0.0254mm.

Different from other products, we have to carry out the first mid-term inspection before the assembly of jewelry, mainly to check whether there are defects in accessories, whether there are sand holes, burrs, uneven coating or other problems. Only after confirming that there is no problem, can we assemble them.

Assemble semi-finished products (such as single loop, lobster clasp) into finished products and hang logo tags.

This is the second inspection to check the appearance, structure, surface, and functionality of the finished product.

304 vs 316 Stainless Steel

The price of stainless steel jewelry will vary widely mainly due to the stainless steel elements. They are different according to the nickel, chromium content percentage. The stainless steel used to make jewelry is currently divided into four types: 202,304, 316, 316L.

The most commonly used is 304, which contains 18-20% chromium and 8-10.5% nickel. But the better stainless steel jewelry use 316, 316L, which are food and pharmaceutical-grade stainless steel materials. 316 has stronger corrosion resistance because it contains 2-3% molybdenum. And the price of 316 is more than twice that of 304.

The differences between 304 and 316 stainless steel cannot be seen with the naked eyes but by professional tests, so many jewelry manufacturers use 304 to replace 316 to increase their profits.

With different jewelry materials and different presentation effects, there are many jewelry processing technologies. The craft of jewelry is divided into,

  • Machine processing process
  • Surface treatment process

1. Machine Processing Process

Lost-wax casting(Investment casting)

Many obvious concaves and convex jewelry casting are done through this method. Lost-wax casting has the following steps,

  • Make metal mould
  • Press mould
  • Infuse wax
  • Make wax tree
  • Infuse gypsum
  • Casting

Stamping process

The stamping process of jewelry is a method of making embossed patterns. First, a mold is made according to a mother mold, and then the embossed pattern is made on the metal by pressure. Many thin pieces of jewelry and jewelry requiring delicate patterns need this processing method.

Chains making

Almost all the necklace chain is produced by the machine because the machine can product efficiently, make many styles, and make in high quality.

2. Surface Treatment Process

Plating

Nowadays, many fashion jewelry is done by gold-plating on base metal surfaces, such as silver plating, copper plating, and stainless steel plating (ION Plating). It allows the luster of gold to replace the color of the plated materials to improve the ornamental effect of jewelry.

Good gold-plated jewelry coating thickness is between 10 microns to 25 microns, while general gold-plated jewelry coating thickness is between 2 microns to 3 microns. If the coating thickness is 0.18 microns below, the jewelry belongs to the cheap ones. Plating materials are generally used in 14K and 18k gold. Jewelry Plating has the following 7 types,

  • Gold plating
  • Anodised
  • E-coat
  • ION- plating
  • PVD – plating
  • Rhodium plating
  • Ruthenium plating

Milling (CNC Engraved)

The process is to carve patterns on the surface of jewelry with a diamond milling cutter. Currently, only part of the couture jewelry is hand-carved.

Most fashion jewelry, such as stainless steel jewelry, use CNC, short for Computer Numerical Control. As long as you edit the pattern on the computer, and then input the system, adjust the pattern arrangement at will, adjust the required size specifications, you can directly carve molding.

CNC Engraved jewelry

Those jewels that use computer programming to design patterns, and use precision machine tools for precise engraving have high precision, good symmetry, stable quality, and vivid patterns. Many first-line brands such as Cartier and Bulgari also use CNC technology for their classic styles.

Polishing

Polishing can give the surface of the jewelry a better mirror effect, which can show a brighter metallic luster. Polished carat gold, platinum, and gold jewelry can be more sparkling.

Sandblasting

After the jewelry is polished, high pressure is used to spray quartz sand or river sand on the surface partly or wholely so that the sandblasting process can form a fine frosted surface. Compared with the smooth surface of the jewelry, the sandblasting process makes the frosted surface of jewelry more fashionable. At present, most gold jewelry on the market would use sandblasting process.

Fashion Jewelry Trends and Process Innovation

With the progress of technology and the change of modern lifestyle, the top three trends of jewelry design are:

  • Concision
  • Personalization
  • High quality

Styles

Jewelry in the style is toward the concise, geometric, abstract decoration direction. Designers are skilled in using simple and lively lines, three-dimensional space structures, and abstract geometric styles to express an unexpected idea.

Themes

With the rapid development of the Internet, information transmission, and high technology, the cultures and arts of different nations in the world are often different.

People are anxious about the rapid change and competition of modern society, and they hope to get a kind of peace from the deep heart, which is reflected in jewelry design.

For example, people advocate classical art and vintage style, pursue traditional style and national characteristics, and like to return to nature and simplicity. Those beautiful flowers and plants, lovely animals, plain national sculptures will be used more in the jewelry design.

Materials

In terms of jewelry materials, people will no longer stick to traditional expensive materials. New materials emerge one after another, including organic and inorganic materials, which can give jewelry richer connotations. For example, 316L stainless steel. As a base metal combined with an electroplating process, it can be made into many simple and beautiful shapes.

Processing innovation

Modern jewelry processing is becoming more and more elaborate, increasing a variety of industrial processing methods, which enrich the scope of application of jewelry materials. And let jewelry present personality, avant-garde, fashion, and fun.
