[Melbourne] [Australia] Jewelery Supply

Jewelry Discussion

We are considering moving to Melbourne , where my wife is from. I
looked online but can not find anything on tool and materials
suppliers in the jewelry trade. Any Aussies out there who could
give me a hint? If we do this I will be needing all new electrical
, like flexshafts, ultrasonics, steamcleaners, ect…

Thanks
Daniel H.

Hi Daniel,

I know Melbourne Jewellers Supplies in Swanson Street for tools and
AGR Joint Venture for findings and metal. You could try
www.yellowpages.co.au I am sure you would find a few people there.

Dear Dan, Make sure that your wife joins the local branch of the
jewellers and metalsmiths association of Australia… we are a bunch
of committed people/students/ established jewellers/metalsmiths etc…
Also get the national magazine of the group, Lemel, which keeps you
in touch with whats going on around the country, plus overseas,
exhibitions coming up etc. Contact is Jan Donaldson. contact me
offline for her email address.

Melbourne have a very active JMGA, and are hosting the next
conference in Feb. 2004.

Try www.aemetal.com.au for metal. They’re in Sydney, they send
intercapital parcels Express Post so you receive them next day.
Prices are good, service is excellent. (Happy customer, no connection
and all that).

www.hoj.com.au is another Sydney company. If you join the Jewellers
and Metalsmiths Group in Victoria, you may find you can get a
discount with House of Jewellery. Ask for Selwyn, he’s the
manager/owner and is very knowledgeable. They also deliver
interstate and are very prompt. They carry all sorts of hand tools,
electricals, display packaging, books, etc., etc. (again happy
customer, no connections…)

Have you considered using a transformer for your electrical
equipment instead of buying new?
