Innovation
The digital, production, finishing, verification and traceability technologies available to our clients — each shown in 3D, step by step. Hover a card to replay it.
01 · Design & digital
Digital tools that capture, preview and reuse designs before any metal is cast.
Design & digital
An existing sample or heirloom is scanned and rebuilt as editable CAD.
Design & digital
Brands preview metals, stones and sizes in 3D before a sample exists.
Design & digital
Approved designs are archived as CAD, ready to re-order or adapt.
02 · Prototyping & production
Printing, casting, machining and forming technologies matched to each design and quantity.
Prototyping & production
Fine-layer printers reproduce filigree, pavé seats and textures in detail.
Prototyping & production
Laser-melted metal powder builds lattices and hollow forms that cannot be cast.
Prototyping & production
Casting under vacuum and a controlled atmosphere reduces porosity for denser metal.
Prototyping & production
One approved master becomes a mould for consistent, repeatable production waxes.
Prototyping & production
Computer-controlled cutting for precise bands, profiles and engraved detail.
Prototyping & production
A hardened die stamps metal under high pressure for dense, crisp pieces.
Prototyping & production
Metal is grown onto a form in a plating bath, creating large, lightweight hollow pieces.
Prototyping & production
A fine laser cuts lace-like patterns and pierced details from sheet metal.
03 · Surface & finishing
Coatings and finishing processes for colour, protection and an even polish across production.
Surface & finishing
A thin, hard colour layer bonded in a vacuum chamber for durable demi-fine colours.
Surface & finishing
A clear protective layer helps silver stay bright for longer.
Surface & finishing
Tumbling with fine pins or media polishes many pieces evenly, including hard-to-reach areas.
Surface & finishing
High-frequency vibration lifts polishing residue out of settings before inspection.
04 · Verification & quality
Instrument-based checks for metal, stones, dimensions and material safety.
Verification & quality
X-ray fluorescence measures metal composition, confirming fineness before hallmarking.
Verification & quality
Screening instruments separate natural, laboratory-grown and simulant stones.
Verification & quality
High-magnification imaging and measurement record quality and dimensions.
Verification & quality
Pieces are tested against the nickel-release limits of the target market.
05 · Traceability
Identification and records that connect a finished piece to its stones, metal and production.
Traceability
A microscopic number inscribed on the girdle makes a stone identifiable.
Traceability
A QR or NFC tag links a piece to its materials and production record.
Traceability
Recycled metal and supplier records support sustainability claims.
Technologies are applied in-house or with specialist partners, depending on the project. Availability, scope and any testing or certification are confirmed during the brief.
