Hi, that was a very informative video! Where in Thailand do you live? I live in Thailand myself and I come from England. I'm an x engineering machinist from the U.K. and I am thinking of starting a sideline making silver jewelry. I have a question about designing jewelry. Every time I put pencil to paper to try to design stuff I always find that somebody else has beaten me to it! Well, not exactly the same but almost the same but very close to it do you have any advice for me because I don't want to copy anybody.
Hi Dermot, thanks for your message. Our manufacturing plant is in Thailand but our head quarters is in the UK and this is where I am based, though we visit the factory several times a year. Ah, yes I hear this from our customers too about creating a design unique enough that noone else has already designed it, but it is hard. We don't design but produce the designs for our designer customers (who have done all the hard work of creating their unique designs!). I would probably advise, based on what our jewellery designer customers experience, is that they try to create designs that are so different and unique that after months of research they're confident that noone else has replicated that design. I know a lot of time goes into looking at other brand designs to make sure they're not copying the designs... And if there is something similar, they would tweak the design in a way that anyone looking at the two in comparison would notice the difference. I hope that helps. Kim
@@jewelrymanufacturingfordes3032 Thanks so much. I used to be a fitter/machinist in the U.K but in the future, I plan to build a small workshop to machine small things and make silver jewelry. The machining part would be to make small punches to stamp out silver shapes to try to keep most things in-house to save paying for things to be done. It's the design of jewelry I have to study about lol!
@@dermotkelly2971 Dye stamping is extremely popular. We utlise our machines in our stamping department to make our lockets and all giftware, so I can only imagine this will be successful for you. Yes - less outsourcing and more in house production! :-) Wishing you lots of luck Dermot!
@@jewelrymanufacturingfordes3032 Thanks but this won't be for a year or so plus I will pretend my Thai wife is doing it all because of the laws here in Thailand
