OEM Stainless Steel Jewelry Manufacturer
Chicolink manufactures OEM stainless steel jewelry from customer-owned drawings, CAD files, product photos, physical samples, size requirements, logo files, packaging artwork, and target-market needs. Our team reviews the design, material route, structure, PVD/IP color, surface finish, logo position, packaging protection, testing files, and QC checkpoints before the project moves from sample approval to bulk production.
- OEM projects can start from drawings, CAD files, photos, or physical samples.
- Regular custom quotation usually takes 48-72 business hours after complete details.
- OEM/ODM custom samples usually take about 25-30 working days.
- Custom OEM orders usually start from 500 pcs/style by design and process.

OEM Manufacturing For Customer-Owned Jewelry Designs
OEM service fits projects where the product direction already belongs to the customer. Chicolink focuses on making that design manufacturable, sample-ready, package-ready, and repeatable in stainless steel production.

Drawings And CAD Files
- Chicolink reviews 2D drawings, 3D files, product dimensions, wall thickness, hole position, stone seats, logo area, and packaging contact before sampling.
- Engineering review checks whether the design needs laser cutting, stamping, CNC, casting, welding, or a mixed route.
- Clear files reduce avoidable sample revisions.

Physical Sample Projects
- A physical sample can define size, weight, surface, clasp, hinge, chain, stone, logo, and packaging direction more clearly than a photo alone.
- Chicolink checks which details should be copied exactly and which need stainless steel process adjustment.
- Sample photos and measurements become the first production reference.

Brand-Owned Concepts
- Some brands start with sketches, mood images, or a rough product idea rather than a full technical file.
- Chicolink can turn the concept into product size, material route, PVD/IP color, finish, logo position, packaging direction, and sample priorities.
- A 6-12 style first OEM board is a practical planning reference when a brand wants a controlled first launch.

Private Label OEM
- OEM jewelry can include logo engraving, logo plates, jewelry cards, pouches, gift boxes, inserts, barcode labels, SKU labels, FNSKU labels, and carton marks.
- Chicolink reviews product and packaging together so the approved sample can move into packing without late label confusion.
- Packaging records support repeat orders.

Marketplace And Retail Lines
- Marketplace and retail OEM projects need product photos, SKU data, barcode files, packaging version, testing-file direction, and shipment preparation.
- Chicolink verify unit packaging, set packaging, carton marks, and label alignment against the product structure, ensuring consistent packaging and labeling across the order.
- This helps reduce receiving and repacking risk.

Repeat OEM Programs
- Long-term OEM programs need stable design versions, approved samples, material route, packaging version, QC scope, and change records.
- We maintain project files linked to order, SKU, material batch, surface route, packaging version, and shipment batch for traceability and repeat-order accuracy.
- Repeat production becomes easier when every update has one current reference.
Send The Details That Make OEM Review Faster
We use complete OEM input to determine manufacturability, quotation, sample timing, packaging, testing, and production planning, aligning product design with sales channel and final packing requirements from the first review.
OEM Detail | What To Send | Chicolink Review Focus | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|---|
Product reference | Drawing, CAD file, photo, sample, sketch, or product link | Product type, size, structure, wall thickness, hole, clasp, hinge, stone, and wearing point | Turns the design into measurable production requirements |
Material direction | 304, 316L, 201, mixed components, stone, pearl, shell, resin, acrylic, enamel, leather, silicone, or ceramic direction | Material grade, skin-contact context, polishing route, cost, and testing-file need | Prevents the wrong material route from raising cost or risk |
Surface and color | Steel color, gold, rose gold, black, gunmetal, rainbow, polished, brushed, matte, sandblast, or antique effect | PVD/IP route, surface preparation, approved color sample, and packaging contact | Helps Chicolink review visual consistency before samples |

Market and testing | Target country, age group, skin-contact level, nickel release, REACH-related, Prop 65 related, RoHS-related, inspection request | Testing-file direction, sample selection, third-party coordination, and QC scope | Supports material, compliance, and quality planning before bulk production |
Turn Design Ideas Into Production-Ready Details
OEM projects move faster when the design is translated into measurable product requirements. Chicolink reviews customer design language and turns it into size, material, process, surface, logo, packaging, testing, and QC details that the factory can actually produce and inspect.
From Look To Specification
A request such as “make this pendant heavier” becomes a review of thickness, weight, edge radius, hole diameter, chain match, engraving depth, polishing loss, and packaging protection. A request such as “keep this gold tone” becomes a review of PVD/IP layer route, approved color sample, surface finish, product geometry, hanging position, and package contact.
From Selling Point To Checkpoint
We apply production checkpoints to brand-specific details – logo readability, QR and serial number scan verification, earring pair color matching, clasp function, bangle opening, ring size, stone setting, and chain pull. Each checkpoint is verified against the approved sample and product specification.
From First Launch To Repeat Order
We maintain one current version of each design — including drawing, sample photo, material route, color reference, packaging version, label file, inspection scope, and shipment detail, so repeat orders follow the approved route, with any changes clearly documented against the previous version.
DFM Review Before OEM Sampling
Chicolink reviews each OEM design before sampling so the product can be produced with the right route, surface preparation, assembly method, packaging protection, and QC focus. This review helps reduce designs that look good in a drawing but fail during polishing, plating, assembly, packing, or bulk production.
Structure Feasibility
- Wall thickness, thin bridges, sharp corners, hole position, opening width, stone seats, hinge space, and clasp location affect whether a stainless steel design can be produced cleanly.
- Laser-cut flat pieces can use minimum hole diameter at least the material thickness and normally >=0.5 mm as a starting review point.
- Chicolink flags fragile or hard-to-polish areas before sample tooling.
Process Route
- OEM designs may need laser cutting, stamping, CNC, casting, welding, bending, polishing, stone setting, or assembly.
- Flat pendants and plates often suit laser cutting or stamping; sculpted pendants, relief textures, or stone-seat structures may need casting; precise rings or clasp parts may need CNC.
- Route choice affects tooling cost, sample time, surface cleanup, and repeatability.
Polishing Access
- Stainless steel jewelry needs enough tool access for edges, inner curves, grooves, stone seats, and visible faces.
- PVD/IP can copy scratches, pits, welding marks, polishing waves, and fingerprints if pre-polishing is weak.
- Rough grinding, fine grinding, buffing, ultrasonic cleaning, and pre-plating inspection improve the final surface.
PVD Hanging Review
- Product geometry and hanging position affect visible color, contact marks, and hidden surfaces.
- Chicolink reviews the visible face, backside tolerance, hole position, chain direction, and packaging contact area before color approval.
- This is especially useful for gold, rose gold, black, gunmetal, rainbow, and steel-color OEM products.
Assembly And Function
- Clasps, hinges, screw parts, jump rings, ear posts, stone settings, magnetic closures, and chain links need functional checks after the final surface route.
- Small hinge clearance, post straightness, pull direction, stone security, and pair matching cannot be judged only from the product image.
- Chicolink connects these details to sample and QC planning.
Packaging Protection
- Mirror polish, PVD/IP color, stones, chains, and delicate engravings can be damaged by the wrong card, bag, pouch, or box.
- Product-to-package fit, anti-scratch separation, label placement, carton pressure, and transport movement are reviewed before bulk packing.
- The product sample and package sample should work together.
OEM Product Structures Chicolink Can Review
Different OEM jewelry designs need different production and inspection logic. Chicolink connects the product type with dimensions, material route, surface finish, function, logo position, packaging contact, and QC checkpoints so the customer-owned design can move into real production.
Pendants And Plates
- Letter, zodiac, religious, geometric, couple, memorial, logo, and flat plate pendants need thickness, hole size, edge radius, front/back direction, and engraving area review.
- Standard pendant thickness can use 1.2-3.0 mm as a practical reference, while heavier memorial or flat accessories can use 2.0-4.0 mm.
- Edge radius of >=0.2-0.5 mm helps reduce sharp-edge risk.
Rings
- OEM rings need size system, inner diameter, band width, thickness, stone position, engraving, surface route, and inner polishing review.
- Ring inner diameter tolerance can use +/-0.10-0.15 mm as a project reference for suitable styles.
- Roundness, burr control, PVD coverage inside the ring, and packaging size affect wearing fit and repeat orders.
Earrings
- Studs, hoops, huggies, ear cuffs, and drop earrings need post diameter, post length, hinge gap, pair color, pair weight, and backing fit control.
- Earring post diameter of 0.7-0.9 mm and effective post length of 10-12 mm are useful starting references.
- Nickel release testing files help skin-contact earring projects prepare for market review.
Bracelets
- Chain bracelets, charm bracelets, beaded bracelets, leather cord bracelets, and magnetic clasp bracelets need length, clasp, connection, charm movement, and pull direction review.
- Light clasp or jump ring pull control can start from 15-25 N for suitable structures, while heavier chains or charms can use 30-50 N.
- Anti-tangle and anti-scratch packing protect the approved appearance.
Bangles
- Closed, open, hinged, cuff, engraved, and zircon bangles need inner diameter, opening width, hinge, lock, edge comfort, and box fit review.
- Bangle inner diameter tolerance can use +/-0.20-0.30 mm, while opening width can use +/-0.30 mm as a project reference.
- Hinged styles need function checks after surface finishing.
Chains
- OEM chains need link type, chain width, wire thickness, length, clasp, jump ring, pendant match, and target weight review.
- Fine chain, Cuban, snake, box, Figaro, rolo, and paperclip chain designs each create different pull, polishing, and tangling risks.
- Card slots, ties, pouches, or protective film can reduce shipment movement.
Jewelry Sets
- OEM sets can combine necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets, bangles, pendants, and gift accessories.
- We verify set completeness, component color and pair matching, packaging placement, barcode data accuracy, and carton quantities in a unified final check before packaging release.
- Packaging BOM and first-piece packing checks reduce missing-piece and mixed-set risk.
Men's And Gift Items
- Men’s chains, signet rings, ID pendants, cross pendants, keychains, cufflinks, and corporate gift items often need heavier structure and clearer engraving.
- Flat accessory thickness of 2.0-4.0 mm supports deeper engraving and stronger perceived weight where the design requires it.
- We ensure gift packaging protects logos, text, dates, and symbols from abrasion and pressure marks during transit and handling.
Choose The OEM Material And Process Route
Material and process choices affect cost, surface result, sample time, tool wear, polishing access, testing-file preparation, and bulk repeatability. Chicolink reviews the design before recommending a stainless steel route.
Route | Suitable OEM Use | Chicolink Review Focus | Product And Seller Value |
|---|---|---|---|
304 stainless steel | Many commercial necklaces, pendants, rings, bracelets, bangles, earrings, and accessories | Cost-performance balance, processing route, polishing access, PVD/IP appearance, and target market | A practical base for broad OEM programs that need stable appearance and manageable cost |
316L stainless steel | Skin-contact, corrosion-resistance, or premium-positioned styles where documentation matters | Higher hardness, higher cost, polishing difficulty, contact surface, nickel release file direction, and product use | Useful when the design needs stronger market-file support, but complex shapes may need more sampling care |
201 stainless steel | Cost-sensitive accessory or non-premium routes after project review | Product type, direct-skin-contact level, surface route, compliance expectation, and packaging protection | Keeps lower-cost OEM projects controlled instead of using one material across every design |
Laser cutting | Flat pendants, plates, thin geometric earrings, logo pieces, and quick design revisions | Sheet thickness, hole size, bridge width, heat distortion, burrs, edge finishing, and engraving readability | Faster development for flat designs and lower mold cost when the structure is suitable |
Stamping / hydraulic forming | Thin-wall, curved, flat, or repeated shell-like parts | Mold design, material thickness, springback, burr direction, surface pull marks, and first-piece checks | Good for repeated shapes where consistency and unit cost matter after tooling |
CNC machining | Rings, precise clasp parts, geometric pieces, channels, holes, and tight-fit details | Tool marks, datum surface, fixture, burr control, critical fit, and polishing after machining | Useful for precision details that need stronger dimensional control |
Casting route | Sculpted pendants, relief textures, stone-seat parts, complex 3D shapes, and small-to-medium custom programs | Master plate or resin master, mold, wax injection, wax tree, casting defects, rough grinding, and polish cleanup | Supports complex shapes while keeping shrinkage, porosity, and surface cleanup visible during sample review |
Mixed assembly route | Jewelry with stones, pearl, shell, resin, acrylic, enamel, leather, silicone, ceramic, charms, or logo plates | Contact points, adhesive or mechanical setting, assembly strength, component variation, and packaging pressure | Adds visual depth while keeping component security and packaging protection under control |
OEM Samples With Clear Approval Points
We use OEM samples to verify production readiness – including structure, material, color, surface, logo, packaging, function, QC scope, and bulk-feasibility – before releasing the order to production.
Feasibility Sample
For uncertain structures, Chicolink can use a rough sample, 3D print, partial process piece, or route note to check whether the design should continue. This step is useful when the design has thin bridges, deep grooves, difficult holes, unusual stone positions, or high polish and PVD/IP expectations.
Engineering Sample
An engineering sample checks size, wall thickness, assembly, edge comfort, clasp or hinge function, polishing access, and early appearance. This stage helps decide whether the drawing, structure, or process route needs adjustment before a complete sample is made.
Complete Product Sample
The complete sample checks material, PVD/IP color, surface finish, logo, stone or decorative detail, wearing feel, and packaging fit. OEM/ODM custom samples usually take about 25-30 working days after complete product files, material, size, color, logo, packaging, and testing needs are confirmed.
Packaging Sample
We verify packaging together with the product for private label, retail, gift, and marketplace projects. Before bulk packing, we confirm jewelry card, pouch, box, insert, barcode, SKU label, FNSKU label, carton mark, product protection, and packaging visual consistency against the approved sample and packaging BOM.
Pilot Sample Or Small Batch
New molds, new structures, new PVD colors, label-heavy packaging, or higher-risk OEM products may need a small pilot sample or pilot batch. A 30-200 pcs pilot range is a useful planning reference when the project needs to check repeatability, packing flow, QC standard, barcode process, and production yield before full output.
Final Approved Sample
The final approved sample serves as the reference for appearance, dimensions, material, color, logo, packaging, and acceptance criteria. We maintain this sample together with production files and QC records so bulk production follows documented specifications.
OEM MOQ, Quote, Cost, And Lead-Time References
OEM timing and cost depend on the design, material, structure, mold or tooling, surface route, logo, packaging, testing, inspection, and shipment requirement. Chicolink uses confirmed details to prepare a clearer quote and production plan.
OEM Item | Chicolink Reference | What Affects It | Useful Details To Send |

OEM bulk production | Usually about 25-45 working days after sample approval, pre-production confirmation, packaging confirmation, and scheduling | Material arrival, process route, PVD/IP color, packaging material, QC plan, testing, inspection, and shipment | Approved sample, final quantity, packaging files, label data, carton marks, inspection scope |
Cost drivers | Product price can change with structure and route | Material weight, forming, polishing, PVD/IP, logo, stone, packaging, testing, tooling, QC, and shipment | Target price, must-keep features, acceptable changes, package level, testing and delivery needs |
OEM Color, Surface, And Logo Details
Color, surface, logo, and decorative details affect the final product in different ways. Chicolink separates these decisions during OEM review so the approved sample can define the right appearance, readability, and packaging protection before bulk work.

PVD/IP Color Route
PVD/IP color options can include 24K Gold, 18K Gold, 14K Gold, Rose Gold, White Gold (Platinum), Black, Gun Metal, Coffee, Blue, Chromium, Colorful, steel color, and selected project colors. For gold-tone stainless steel jewelry, Chicolink’s confirmed vacuum coating references are Standard E1 with 0.4 um TiN + 0.05 um Au / Gold and Thicker Gold E2 with 0.7 um TiN + 0.1 um Au / Gold after special project requirement and layer-system confirmation.

Surface Finish Route
Surface finishes can include mirror polish, high polish, brushed finish, matte finish, satin finish, sandblasting, antique effect, enamel effect, color filling, and UV printing. Surface texture changes how PVD/IP color appears, how scratches show, and how the product touches cards, pouches, or boxes.

Logo And Decorative Work
Logo work can include laser engraving, laser marking, stamping, cut-out, CNC engraving, logo plates, custom charms, serial numbers, names, dates, coordinates, and simple QR-style markings. Chicolink applies a 98.2% engraving accuracy acceptance reference for logo, text, pattern, QR code, and private-label engraving.

Approved Visual Reference
PVD appearance depends on material, polishing, cleaning, hanging position, product geometry, coating batch, approved color sample, and packaging contact. Chicolink reviews color sample, surface sample, logo sample, and packaging sample together so the final product has a realistic bulk-production reference.
Packaging And SKU Control For OEM Jewelry
OEM products are not finished until the package, label, barcode, carton mark, and product protection match the approved product. Chicolink reviews packaging with the jewelry so custom designs can move into retail, marketplace, gift, or distributor channels without avoidable repacking.
Packaging BOM
- A packaging BOM can include product, jewelry card, OPP bag, anti-oxidation bag, pouch, gift box, insert, care card, barcode, SKU label, FNSKU label, and carton mark.
- Each item should have material, size, color, logo, artwork version, and assembly direction where needed.
- The BOM keeps product and package versions aligned.
Product Protection
- We pack mirror-polish and PVD/IP products separately to prevent metal-to-metal contact and surface abrasion during transit.
- OPP or PE bags can use 0.04-0.08 mm as a practical starting reference, with thicker or extra protection for sharp edges, mirror faces, or heavier items.
- Chains can be fixed with slots, ties, or protective film.
Jewelry Cards
- Jewelry cards can use standard or custom size, paper, hole position, printing, foil stamping, lamination, barcode area, and product-fixing method.
- Card stock can start from 300-450 gsm, while heavier pieces may need stronger card or reinforced display structure.
- Card-to-product fit matters for earrings, chains, bangles, and gift sets.
Pouches And Boxes
- Velvet pouches, gift boxes, drawer boxes, flip boxes, inner trays, and logo boxes can support brand, gift, DTC, or retail presentation.
- Product-to-box internal gap can start from 2-10 mm with fixation when movement would scratch, tangle, or weaken display.
- We verify dark fabrics and printed materials for color transfer risk before product contact, protecting finished surfaces from dye staining.
Barcode And Labels
- We keep barcode files organized and version-controlled by customer and order – SKU, FNSKU, UPC, EAN, GTIN, and internal codes – ensuring correct label application and full traceability.
- Barcode label/data mismatch can be controlled around <=100 PPM for suitable packaging projects, with shipment-stopping wrong-label target 0.
- High-risk multi-SKU OEM orders can use scan checks before carton sealing.
Packing Accuracy
- Chicolink can manage private label packaging around packaging BOM, line clearance, first-piece packaging check, label control, and packaging inspection.
- Packaging accuracy uses a public control reference of >=99.8% for SKU, color, quantity, card, pouch, box, barcode, and carton-mark matching.
- Packaging photos and carton records help repeat orders follow the approved setup.
Move From Approved Sample To Bulk Production
Bulk OEM production needs stable product and packaging instructions before material preparation, forming, polishing, PVD/IP, assembly, QC, packing, and shipment. Chicolink connects the approved sample with final drawings, material route, color reference, packaging version, label files, and inspection scope.
Final Specification Set
We prepare production files that document product specifications (drawings, sample photos, material, dimensions, weight), finish and marking (surface, PVD color, logo method), packaging and shipping (packaging BOM, barcode and label files, carton marks, shipping instructions), and quality (inspection standards) – all aligned to the approved sample.
Material And Tooling Preparation
We verify all production inputs against the approved route – materials, components, packaging, tooling, and programs. Any change to material provider, mold, process, or packaging is assessed for cost, timing, sample, and QC impact before we implement it.
Production Scheduling
OEM bulk production can include rough forming, cutting, stamping, CNC, casting, welding, polishing, PVD/IP or surface work, logo or decorative detail, assembly, packaging material preparation, final inspection, and shipment preparation.
Process And QC Records
Records can connect order number, SKU, material batch, production batch, sample version, PVD or surface batch, packaging version, QC result, inspection date, and shipment batch. This makes repeat orders and issue review more practical.
Change Review
We manage changes to material, structure, color, logo, packaging, label, testing, inspection, or shipping method through a controlled review process after pre-production confirmation. Each change is assessed for cost, sample revalidation, MOQ, production schedule, and QC impact – with customer approval required for changes affecting approved specifications.

OEM QC, Testing Files, And Inspection Support
OEM quality control must follow the product structure, approved sample, packaging version, target market, and inspection requirement. Chicolink can connect IQC, IPQC, FQC/OQC, AQL, feature-specific checks, testing files, and third-party inspection coordination with the custom product being produced.
Incoming And Process Checks
IQC can review stainless steel grade, material batch, dimensions, surface condition, chains, clasps, stones, glue, packaging materials, barcode files, and material-provider documents. IPQC can cover first-piece inspection, process patrol, polishing checks, PVD color checks, logo checks, assembly checks, and packaging first-piece confirmation.
Feature-Specific OEM Checks
High-risk OEM features may need extra checks beyond a general checklist. Logo readability, barcode data, clasp function, paired earrings, ear posts, hinge movement, bangle opening, chain pull, stone security, and visible PVD appearance can receive targeted checks according to product risk.
Final Inspection And AQL
FQC/OQC can cover final surface, size, function, color, logo, stone, packaging, label, quantity, carton mark, and pre-shipment inspection. AQL logic can follow ISO 2859-1 attribute sampling with General Inspection Level II, Critical Ac=0, Major AQL 1.5, and Minor AQL 2.5 unless customer standards take priority.
Testing And Factory Information
Chicolink can provide relevant testing and compliance files for project review, including REACH-related files, nickel release testing files, lead/cadmium files, California Proposition 65 related files, RoHS-related files, salt spray, artificial sweat, abrasion, adhesion, pull, torque, drop, and third-party testing or inspection coordination where required.
Confidential Handling For Customer-Owned Designs
OEM projects often involve unreleased designs, customer logos, exclusive molds, confidential prices, and launch timing. Chicolink can support NDA handling, controlled file access, customer logo authorization, exclusive mold discussion, and custom product confidentiality according to project agreement.
Design File Control
We organize customer drawings, CAD files, logos, sample photos, pricing, and unreleased products by project — with access restricted to the team members directly involved in quotation, engineering, sampling, production, QC, packaging, and shipment.
Logo And Authorization
Customer logos, protected marks, names, and artwork require customer authorization before production. Chicolink reviews logo position, engraving method, packaging artwork, and label files as production inputs, while the brand owner remains responsible for lawful logo or IP permission.
Exclusive Mold And Sample Handling
Exclusive mold support can be discussed by project. Ownership, cost, storage period, maintenance, copying, transfer, and disposal should be defined in the commercial agreement. Custom samples and product photos are not used publicly without customer permission.
OEM Launch Confidentiality
Unreleased designs, custom product photos, order screenshots, and customer brand assets should not appear on public pages, exhibitions, social media, or sample-room presentation without written permission. This helps protect launch timing and customer-owned product identity.
