ABOUT US
We bring your jewelry to life!
Our mission is to help you transform your ideas from paper to finished jewelry. Exactly the way you envisioned it.
We believe in taking the time to plan your design. The result is beautiful jewelry, made exactly how you want it. The sketch of your design will have all the dimensions and stone sizes that will be used on your jewelry, carefully calculated to make sure that your design can be manufactured within your desired budget. Our team of CAD designers will render your jewelry so you can see how it will look once it is done.
We believe in producing jewelry of the highest standards. We use state of the art technology and the latest manufacturing equipment to deliver the best quality possible.
There is no minimum order quantity with us. It is one of the aspects that makes our organization so great. Our ordering systems allow for you to practice Just In Time inventory systems and place your orders with us according to your distributors orders to you. Our larger clients sometimes place 10 – 50 orders per day according to their distributions. Orders can contain anywhere from one piece to many thousands of pieces.
Most people can never find jewelry they want, because it was made by someone else for someone else. At Artchy Jewelry, we encourage you to make your own jewelry. The way you want it!
