forever21 has them online. you could probably find that in your local forlove/forever too.
I have silver wire wrap pendant with tourmaline and other crystals in it and have no clue where to sell it.

I want to know about like the people that draw up the designs for the jewelry not the people who make it. I wanted to know after you draw up your designs where do you take them? To like a jewelry store? I don’t know, I also wanted to know around how much money you make doing that? Thank you.
The answer to your question could vary but I will attempt to give you some guidance.
Typically, the designers we have worked with are independent (not working for a jewelry company). Many designers choose to operate independently however some work for jewelry manufactures, suppliers, or in some cases directly for the retailer. You would want to have a prototype of your jewerly created by a jeweler and an idea of how to market your jewelry to retailers.
If you are interested in designing fine jewelry you may want to visit a JA show (http://www.ja-newyork.com). As far as how much money you will make goes, it would vary depending upon the type of jewelry you are creating, materials, willingness of buyers/licensees, etc.

I need to know the physics behind how a jeweler can tell the authenticity of jewelry by using a touchstone. Can anyone explain this to me, even if you don’t know a whole lot about it?
first, i think you need to figure out the touchstone is used for which kind of jewelry? is it for diamond? sapphire? jade? you need to know different gemstones have its own features.

I’m talking about things like enamel postcards, teacups, Eiffel towers and ruby slippers the sort of charms and pendants you’d see on necklaces in Accessorize or Urban Outfitters?
There’s a few people selling these sorts of necklaces on eBay but I can’t figure out where they’re getting the pendants from!
Is there a wholesaler I should know about?!
Help would be much appreciated!
Try Fire Mountain Gems - I believe they ship everywhere. I’ve seen charms in themes that you could use for a pendant. Also, if you want to get really creative, they sell the materials & tools to make your own silver jewelry. I’m going to buy that sometime this year. Check their link. They have a great staff that can answer questions. And they have all kinds of charts, how-to videos etc…
I would like to open a wholesale jewelry store. How do I find jewelry manufacturers overseas so that I can order in huge bulks? Do I need to order through a broker? Any information on this topic would be helpful. Thanks.
try finding contacts thru ebay
My boyfriend has told me that he would like to save up to engrave my stainless steel turk, a circular bar necklace that is locked in place. We want to engrave it with latin, 27 letters exactly, and maybe some roses. Does anyone know how much this would cost?
Engraving costs are decided by the engraver who will have to look at the item to be engraved, then the style of letters and artwork involved and the degree of difficulty for doing such a job. It can cost from $50 to about $75 based on what you mentioned.
The best thing to do is to take it to teh engraver and get an estimate. They do not charge for estimates.
I don’t always see crosses on them. I’ve seen the Chinese with luck charms on theirs. What’s Evgeni or Johnny Weir wearing then?
They were actually talking about that during the pairs the other night… there was a comment about one of the Chinese men wearing his gold chain during skating, and it’s because in Chinese culture gold is considered lucky/to bring good fortune, and the Chinese have long been superstitious. Therefore they wear the chains… My guess is either other cultures have similar beliefs, or they take a page from the Chinese book and wear them because, hey, what can it hurt?
What are those bracelets and necklaces called that are supposed to help with ADD and focusing and they’re also supposedly good for your heart too. They have little magnets in them or something. There are usually two bands that are joined by a black plastic box type thing. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
