What It Means

Contract Crafting, explained.

Contract crafting is straightforward: you already have the design, and you need a workshop capable of producing it to a high standard, reliably, at scale. We take on the manufacturing entirely, so your team can focus on design, sales, and brand - while your production runs through a workshop with close to a century of bench experience.

The Process

From first consultation to delivery.

Share technical drawings, CAD files, or physical references for your piece.

02  Costing & Timeline

We provide a production cost, minimum order quantity, and realistic lead time.

03  Sample Approval

A sample is produced against your design for sign-off before full production.

04  Production & Delivery

Full production is completed and delivered to your agreed schedule, confidentially.

Outsourced manufacturing, without the compromises outsourcing usually implies.

Trusted Ceylon Sourcing

Direct relationships across Sri Lanka’s gem lands, without unnecessary middlemen.

Trusted by jewellery houses and retailers abroad.

“A partner, not a vendor.”

We have worked with several manufacturers in Sri Lanka. This is the first relationship that has felt like a genuine partnership, from sourcing through to shipping.
