เทคนิคการผลิตฝังพลอยในเทียนกับการบริหารต้นทุนเวลา

ความได้เปรียบ...ที่จะเอาชนะคู่แข่งที่ใหญ่กว่า
...ต้องคิดไม่เหมือนเขา...และคิดในสิ่งที่เขาคาดไม่ถึง
...การผลิตแบบเดิม...กับการบริหารต้นทุนที่เสียเปรียบ
...ก็ไม่ต่างกับทำธุรกิจที่ไม่เห็นต้นทุนที่แท้จริง...
...ทั้งนี้ถ้ามีวิธีการที่ดีกว่า..แต่ไม่ใช้
...คงต้องรอความเสี่ยงและเสียโอกาสทางธุรกิจนั้นไป

Hearts And Arrows Diamonds

What are Hearts And Arrows Diamonds?

True Heart and Arrows diamonds are cut to ideal proportions with a superior optical symmetry and very specific faceting pattern that produces a repeatable optical pattern of eight hearts when viewed through the pavilion facets and eight arrows when viewed through the crown.

Why Hearts and Arrows?

Hearts and Arrows diamonds are the very best technology and history have to offer in precision, light return, and cutting ability. The idea behind Hearts and Arrows is to give you the most beautiful diamond possible…period. While delivering the highest possible brilliance, fire and sparkle, they are superior in light returned to the eyes from inside the diamond. The brilliance and light return make a H&A diamond appear larger and more alive than any other diamond.

How Do You Get Hearts and Arrows?

Cut grades from GIA and AGS encompass a range of sizes and angles for each facet, and grouping of facets. These ranges depict the best technology and artistry the labs have to grade from. Hearts and Arrows take these ranges of “best” and hone them down to fractions of a degree in tolerance to make a truly rare and exquisite find of precision and beauty.

The History of the Hearts and Arrows Cut and Grading

1988:Hearts and Arrows was born in Japan

1990:Hearts and Arrows viewer was invented

1996:AGS opened their own lab to grade and convey cut with the 0-10 scale still used today.Late 

1990s:AGS became the lab of choice for H/A dealers because of the cut grading capabilities.

2005:AGS developed the Angular Spectrum Evaluation Tool. This is a tool used to calculate a diamond’s ability to reflect, refract, and return light to the observer.

2006:GIA came up with their “excellent” cut grading system that is still used today. Not all “excellent” diamonds are the same.

2008:AGS introduces the current Diamond Quality Document Platinum report (with ASET image). This is where H/A diamonds are most obvious in grading technologies.

Bangkok gems and jewelry fair บางกอกเจมส์แอนด์จิวเวลรี่แฟร์

 

BANGKOK, THAILAND --  The Thai government announced the lift of 20% tax on imported gems and jewellery products to be sold at the 56th Bangkok Gems and Jewelry Fair (BGJF56) this coming September.

 

Foreign exhibitors will be allowed to bring in and sell gems and jewellery from other countries duty-free, while local exhibitors can reduce their selling prices after cutting down on imported parts and products’ costs.  Thus, both local and foreign buyers at the fair can take advantage of 20% savings, giving them additional purchasing power at the Fair.

 

“We are privileged to have the government working alongside us so directly,” saysSomchai Phornchindarak, President of the Thai Gem and Jewelry Traders Association (TGJTA) and Chairman of the Gems, Jewelry and Precious Metal Confederation of Thailand.  He said the government decision came at the heels of TGJTA’s strong advocacy for a concessional duty rate of 0%, and they are happy to see their requests granted. 

“The government has been with us every step of the way, helping to promote exports as well as developing overseas markets via trade fairs, road shows and exceptional exhibitions.  All these changes predict a gleaming future for all,” added Phornchindarak.

 

The concession is considered as a temporary grace period (15 days before/ after the BGJF54) for everyone attending and participating in the BGJF54.  Products to be covered by the measure are pearls, precious stones and metals, imitation jewelry and coins – all categories that fall under the International Trade Commission (ITC)’s Harmonized System Code, Chapter 71.

 

Suttipong Damrongsakul, Chief Executive Officer of the BGJF Organizing Committee, said the move would significantly propel Thailand to become the “golden gateway to the gems and jewelry industry of the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) -- a region burgeoning with a 600 million population.”

 

The import duty-free incentive can only be availed of at the BGJF54 though, by exhibitors endorsed by TGJTA.  Sellers who are not endorsed would still have to pay the standard 20% import tax. Moreover, the regular 7% Value Added Tax still applies to all exhibitors, local and foreign.

 

The BJGF54, scheduled this September 10-14, 2015 at Bangkok’s IMPACT Exhibition and Convention Center, is expected to draw tens of thousands of buyers from all around the world.  Last February, the 51st fair received over 30,000 visitors from more than 130 countries, including buyers from Dubai, Russia, China, Bahrain, Brazil andCanada.  The bi-annual event is regarded as the world’s fifth and Asia’s second largest trade show in the gems and jewelry market.  The fair boasts of gross export revenues exceeding Bt400,000 Million or US $12.8 Billion.

 

Phornchindarak said the strength of the industry is built on such solid foundations as “excellent designs, reputed quality, premier craftsmanship and state-of-the-art technology.  These qualities, along with best possible support services, have seamlessly propelled our industry, all despite rocky economic conditions worldwide since 2007.”

 

Another tax-free initiative the BGJF is offering is the Zero VAT Pavilion, where buyers are exempted from paying the 7% value-added tax imposed on rough gems and raw materials imported into Thailand for manufacturing.  It’s a government-backed policy that aims to strengthen the country’s position as the “World’s Gems and Jewellery Hub” and the largest manufacturing centre for such products in the entire globe.  Damrongsakul says the Zero VAT Pavilion will surely entice those looking for excellent bargains.

Aside from the tax cuts, TGJTA says it will initiate a variety of new features that will enhance trade activities like seminars, contests, trend updates, and special offers. 

 

At the 51st fair last February, BGJF introduced the Business Matching  Service –a scheme that helps foreign buyers identify, locate and communicate with exhibitors long before the fair actually begins.  After registration, customers are assisted by staff members of the Fair to view suppliers’ profiles, see their latest products, and select those whom they wish to meet.  The service is free of charge, conducted online, and done in the comfort and privacy of buyers’ offices or homes.  In return, sellers are able to study the buyers’ specifications and prepare customized sales pitches well ahead of time.

 

“The service is immensely popular as it gives buyers the ability to both swiftly and accurately locate very specific suppliers in an amazingly fast and convenient way,” says Damrongsakul. 

 

Additional privileges that the Matching Service offers to is the chance for buyers to meet and sit with sellers, by appointment, in a private, comfortable room with special VIP service.

 

According to TGJTA, hundreds of buyers from the previous fair availed of the service and were highly satisfied with it.  Around $30,000 to $2million worth of gems and jewelry were purchased using that method alone.

 

At least 1,500 gem and jewellery suppliers participated in the 51st fair last February.  Organizers say they’re putting up an additional 3,500 booths this year, expecting a significant rise not only in the number of exhibitors, but also in the number of booths the sellers will be renting.  They say commercial space is running out fast, so exhibitors are urged to register right away.

 

Now running on its 30th year, BGJF56 will be held at the IMPACT’s famous Challenger Hall, Asia’s largest column-free, ground-level exhibition facility.   Shuttle service will be available to and from Bangkok’s 5-star hotels to give added convenience to buyers and sellers alike.

การชิ้นงานสามมิติ Hollow jewelry 3d wax

3D wax piecesTHE NEW GENERATION

Sensitive to all market requests, Riacetech has developed a wax injection process based on hydro soluble support.
It will be possible to realize 3D filigreed and hollow objects using normal and standard wax and over going the removal boundary of the interior part of the mold.

Main advantages compared to the Prototype technique:
• Inexpensive for bigger productions (the cost of the Hydroresin if 5 times lower).
• Final wax piece avoiding melting problems of resins.
• Number of pieces per day which can be made over any prototype.
• Dissolving Hydroresin into water (no acids) and without any draining problems.
• Completely non-toxicity.
• Using one of our standard injectors (no adding cost for special machinery).

 Step in process
1.Inject some Hydroresin  into mould n. 1
2.Put into mould n. 2 the piece we have obtained by using Hydroresin
3.Injection of the wax
4.Extraction of the wax piecewith the Hydroresin core
5.Diving the piece into some cold water: the Hydroresin core dissolves.
6.Obtaining in-Hallow Wax piece

10 Things New Jewelry Designers Need to Know

10 Things New Jewelry Designers Need to Know

By Jennifer Heebner, Senior Editor.

Posted on December 12, 2014
http://www.jckonline.com/blogs/style-360/2014/12/12/10-things-new-jewelry-designers-need-to-know

This post was cowritten with Cindy Edelstein, CEO of the Jeweler’s Resource Bureau and onetime fashion editor at JCK, whose current business is based on helping designers—new and established—master merchandising, marketing, and promotion.

You’ve decided to become a jewelry designer. Congratulations! Committing to fulfilling a dream is exciting and can be rewarding in many ways, provided you understand exactly what you’re pursuing. Here are 10 tips for new artists to know as they attempt to hang a glittering shingle.

1. Know your unique voice—signature style—before reaching out to the media and stores. New designers have to know and effectively communicate their unique selling proposition, which is marketing speak for what makes them unique in the marketplace. Editors and retailers are busy and have dozens and dozens of other new artists—just like you—vying for their time and attention. You have to be able to catch their eye and ear quickly to let them know how you differ from those dozens of other designers. Be prepared to articulate succintly your jewelry’s unique attributes. This takes practice and line refinement.

2. Do your homework and know your competition. You have competition—lots of it. So many designers tell us, “No one else is doing this,” when, in fact, plenty already are. Once you are able to articulate your signature style—David Yurman’s is the cable, John Hardy’s is the Balinese dot, Ray Griffiths’ is crown work—then research the market and know your competitors. Who else is making pieces with similar aesthetics? I guarantee you that others exist. There is room in the market for similar looks, but knowing how yours differs is key to selling it to media and buyers. Understanding your product position, your customer, and the market will help you create a cohesive collection and drive it to the right prospects. 

3. Develop a thick skin. There are many designers in the market, and many with stories and styles that may be similar to yours. Your friends and family and even strangers may tell you that your jewelry is beautiful—which is great and inspiring—but that doesn’t mean you should automatically have case space in Bergdorfs. Media or buyers may not feel the same. Prepare yourself for other opinions and insights, listening objectively to constructive criticism, and know that designers who can understand how to sell their jewelry—even better than how to design it—will reap rewards faster and probably more than designers who think the jewelry “speaks for itself.”

4. Know what editors want from you. In general, they all want professional photos on a white background with descriptions of what they are looking at with file names that correspond to your company and credit info. For example, JaneDoeWaterfallEarrings.jpg is a yes and img39240.jpg is a no—unless you have provided a separate written list of captions that clearly states caption info for that particular image. Be friendly and to the point—and even a tad persistent when necessary. Editors and buyers are inundated with requests daily. Don’t take it personally if you don’t get a reply; editors have lots of deadlines to meet, so it’s impossible for them to respond to every email. You should continually send new images to editors via email and consider asking them exactly what they need from you to be considered for press. After they tell you, send them exactly what they asked for. So, so often this simple step doesn’t happen, and it’s the easiest way to get press.

Editor’s note: For editorial consideration at JCK, please email me new professional shots of individual pieces on white backgrounds several times a year, along with description of items, including metal types, carat weights of stones, and suggested retail prices. Send this material to me atJHeebner@jckonline.com

5. Understand the differences between media outlets. Each publication is different, and you want to pitch the right items to the right magazines for editorial placement. For instance, InStyle is a widely read women’s magazine with a mix of beauty, fashion, celebrity, and jewelry coverage, featuring lots of price-point specific options for readers to feel like they can have on-trend pieces at any budget. Conversely, Town & Country showcases high-ticket jewels that interest well-off women who are status-conscious and design savvy. In the middle is something like Redbook, which is mostly read by moms who spend their disposable incomes on kids and homes, so their jewelry choices lean toward affordable and practical. Knowing this saves countless hours pitching $500 earrings to Robb Report and $15,000 wedding bands to Cosmopolitan. Then there are the trade magazines that are read primarily by retailers. If you sell direct to the consumer, then don’t pitch the trades, because their readers want to be able to buy what they see for resale.

6. Understand the difference between bloggers and editors. Bloggers and editors are similar: Both write blogs and give exposure to jewelry, designers, and retailers, though editors always choose subjects based on the interests and needs of their audiences. Bloggers do so either to serve their readership—like an editor—or because they’ve been paid or the content is linked to a marketing vehicle. For example, Idazzle.com and Adornmentality.com are editorial blogs in nature—the bloggers write about what interests them and their audience, not because they are paid to do so. Meanwhile, the Orange Juice and Biscuits blog has done some promotional work withLoveGold.com to promote gold jewelry at LoveGold’s request, and JCK Marketplace is a marketing vehicle for the JCK shows, featuring images of jewelry and contact information from JCK show exhibitors. When content has a promotional hook, it’s not editorial, it’s advertorial—which plays an important role in the media world. And just like pitching editors, you want to understand the bloggers’ audience in order to send them relevant pitches. Know that some will expect payment in order for a piece to be written about you on their platform.

7. Find your own press. Subscribe to the publication to which you’ve submitted your work, or simply create a Google Alert with your company name to be alerted when your work is featured in a publication. You can also do a simple Google search, such as “Jane Doe JCK,” and then read the search results to find your press. Google searches are quick and easy to do, as is simply searching the website of the publication to which you submitted images.

8. Research appropriate stores for your line. Mass manufacturers should not pitch designer galleries just because they’ve read about them in a magazine. There’s no common ground there. Same for a crafty bohemian jewelry line pitching Fred Leighton—it’s not a good fit. Instead, research stores to know which ones are ideal for your jewelry. Everyone seems to want to sell to the same small circle of cool, popular stores, but there are so many more little-known ones that could sell your work (and their payment terms might even be much better than the “it” stores everyone pines for). This is why it’s important to research retailers and understand customer bases to make sure a match exists. This move is part of the market research that most designers skip in the early stages because they think beautiful jewelry is all they need to succeed. Instead, beautiful product is only one part of the story, and a small one at that. (Cindy teaches this as part of her two-day boot camp. For more information click here.)

9. Get involved. Join multiple industry groups because they offer support, networking, and opportunities that newbies desperately need. This is a relationship-based business, and you can instantly gain a wider circle of support by joining Jewelers of America and getting the publicity benefits of its efforts. Also consider joining the Manufacturing and Jewelry Suppliers of America to connect with suppliers and to have access to a lot of great education from the magazine, its live events, and database of suppliers. Get connected to Platinum Guild International and the Silver Promotion Service for promotional campaigns and opportunities for designers to showcase their work to editors. The Women’s Jewelry Association is a fantastic organization with lots of networking opportunities and designer members who offer support to newbies (both Cindy and yours truly serve on WJA boards). Plus, the Contemporary Jewelry Design Group does a great job of promoting its members’ work on social media and is worth the cost of membership.

10. Know your resources—who can help you if you need further direction. There are lots of individuals and firms in industry who can guide you, give you advice, and serve as a shoulder to lean on when you need it. You will find many through camaraderie in the organizations listed above and through businesses set up to help designers thrive. Here are a few folks who can help you succeed:

Cindy Edelstein, president, Jeweler’s Resource Bureau

Andrea Hansen, LUXE Intelligence

Janet Goldman, Fragments
