Looking for production services

I am v. new to the jewelry business and plan to attend the JCK show.
Somehow I feel “safer” when I connect with Orchid people. So…I
would appreciate anyone who would like to introduce themselves to
contact me personallly by email.

My “new” business is to manufacture (probably abroad due to cost
constraints) charm bracelets based on my v. rough image-designs. I
also know what kind of chain I want, etc. Very Steven Dweck-ish.
Don’t want to give too much away but I will need 1) model maker,
mold, prototype, manufacturing people, Complete service. etc. etc.
Please feel free to contact me as to make appt. to meet in Vegas at
the show. I will also need to do this quickly due to a current
opportunity. Kindly, Melissa

Hi, I live close to a foundry that produces beautiful results. If you
send them a prototype they can make a mold for you. They cast lead
free pewter for several artist around the country.
http://www.odyssey-metalworks.com/index.htm They cast everything from
beads and pendants to statues and drawer pulls. Although the website
shows a few examples I have been to their shop and the website
doesn’t do justice to the quality and variety of what they are able
to produce. The quality is superb with great attention paid to fine
details. I hope you find this useful in your quest for mold makers
and casters.

In light of the long thread just winding down relating how JCKgoes
to great lengths to exclude persons other than direct retailers from
the show, and since it would appear from your post that you are a
designer, how do you plan to get in? Jerry in Kodiak
