Jewellery manufacturing assessment
Have a design and need to discuss its manufacture? Establish feasibility, responsibilities and an itemized quotation before committing to a sample or production batch.
When comparing jewellery manufacturers or production options, start with an approved design and a clear specification. Discuss materials, samples, quantities and acceptance criteria before a production quotation is agreed. CAD design support · Materials and component sourcing

FROM THE BRIEF TO THE NEXT STEP
How the commission works
01
Your production requirement
Outline the piece, whether a design file exists, estimated quantity, preferred materials and target date. The first enquiry does not require confidential uploads.
02
A feasibility review
Through an agreed transfer route, assess the design against the proposed maker’s requirements. Clarify whether adaptation, a sample or further measurements are needed.
03
A complete specification
Agree dimensions, tolerances, finish, stone setting and quality criteria. Establish what Reinhard handles and what the selected manufacturing partners handle.
04
Quotation and sample
Separate applicable setup, sample, materials, production, setting, finishing and delivery costs. Approve the sample or an explicitly agreed alternative validation before a batch.
05
Authorize production
Confirm the specification, commercial terms and current timing. Agree updates and how any deviation will be reviewed before dispatch.
06
Review and deliver
Use the agreed quality and acceptance process, delivery documentation and discrepancy-resolution terms. Preserve the approved version for any separately authorized reorder.
What to share
- Piece and design-file availability
- Estimated quantity
- Materials and finish
- Target date and destination
- Known quality or tolerance requirements
You do not need every detail to start the conversation.
Before you commit
Agree the scope, deliverables, revisions, price and timing in writing. A design preview, specification approval and authorization to manufacture are separate steps.
A few useful answers
Is production automatically accepted after an enquiry?
No. Feasibility, responsibilities, price and timing are confirmed for the particular request.
What if our file needs changes?
Design adaptation is identified and quoted as an agreed scope before manufacture.
Are there fixed minimum quantities?
Any minimum quantity, sample requirement and capacity limit is confirmed in the project assessment; this page does not promise a universal minimum.
Let’s discuss the next step.
A short brief is enough to begin the assessment. Specifications, feasibility, price and timing are confirmed for your individual request.
Separate a sample decision from a batch decision
An approved drawing does not settle every production question. When discussing manufacture, separate the purpose of an initial sample from the specification for a later quantity. Identify the features the sample must help assess, the agreed material and finish, and who records any changes. If a revised detail is accepted, make sure the later production brief names that version rather than the original reference. Sample costs, acceptance arrangements and any batch commitment belong in the quotation; the assessment itself should not be treated as authorization to begin production.
- Sample purpose: which unresolved questions must it answer?
- Specification: material, dimensions, stones and finish.
- Review: who accepts it and records changes?
- Batch: confirmed version, quantity and separate authorization.
