Even if it is a full diamond necklace, it may not necessarily become top-level jewelry.
From material selection to design, and then to craftsmanship, in every aspect of creating a jewelry piece, in order to become a high-end jewelry piece, one must strive for excellence.
01 Precious and Rare Materials
A piece of jewelry that can be called high-end jewelry must first be made of precious metals and precious gemstones.
Gold, K gold, K platinum, platinum, and other metals commonly used for jewelry inlay are classified as precious metals.
In recent years, due to its advantages such as light weight and diverse design changes, titanium metal has also been increasingly used in high-end jewelry.
Besides metals, gemstones are also very important for a piece of jewelry. They are almost the main value of a piece of jewelry, so high-quality precious gemstones must be used.
With the development of the times, the definition of precious gemstones is no longer limited to the traditional four major family categories of diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. Gemstones such as Paraiba, Morganite, and aquamarine are also widely used.
Although the selection of high-end jewelry materials is becoming increasingly diverse nowadays, the standards for measuring quality have never relaxed. Every moment, the gemstones are carefully selected and absolutely superior.
02 Unique Design
Taking a bare diamond and making it into a four or six claw inlay according to the customer’s requirements can only be called “customized”, even if it is inlaid with a ten carat ruby, it is not “high-end” customization because it lacks unique design.
It can be said that for a piece of high-end jewelry, its artistic value and material value are almost equally important, and design is the soul of jewelry.
True high-end jewelry customization must be uniquely designed according to the customer’s temperament and characteristics, and have high artistic value.
03 Exquisite craftsmanship
The craftsmanship of high-end customization must be extremely exquisite and possess some unique properties that cannot be replicated.
Similarly, anything precious is difficult to produce in large quantities. In order to achieve excellence, many high-end jewelry items are handmade.
From wax carving to inlay, and then to polishing… every step must be completed by experienced craftsmen by hand.
Although computers and machines have been widely used in the jewelry processing industry for a long time, the high pearls at the top of the pyramid have high manual craftsmanship requirements.
For high-end jewelry that often requires complex craftsmanship, experienced craftsmen with decades of experience can create temperatures and levels that machines cannot replace.
