PRODUCTION AUDIT
If you have already started producing product it is likely that you already have specific manufacturers/ jewelers that you are already working with.
DEH will audit their quality of work, consistency, costs of doing business, and compare them to other competition.
DEH will also offer suggestions and more efficient ways to work with your existing manufacturing, to save money but remain with the same overall team.

Product Development
Product Development is one of the most integral steps for Fine Jewelry Designers as this is where your vision must come together aesthetically and be engineered to function the way you expect at the cost needed to be competitive in the Fine Jewelry Market.
DEH will walk you through things to consider with each design, how they affect function, the visual proportions of the piece, as well as cost.
DEH then manages this process with the manufacturers directly, working out function and estimated pricing; allowing you to sign off on the piece without having to deal with each incremental step.

Overseas Production Management
While we understand that Overseas manufacturing is not the right fit for every Designer, with the Fine Jewelry market becoming more competitive many fine jewelry brands are looking for more cost effective forms of production without sacrificing quality and ethical standards.
DEH currently works with 6 different overseas manufacturing companies, each with their own competitive advantage on quality, pricing, or a specific aspect of production that they do particularly well.
For all of these manufacturers, DEH has managed to work more or less as a “union” of independent designers. This allows for us to negotiate payment terms, no quantity minimums, more competitive pricing, and better service from all of our overseas manufacturers.
At DEH our ethics and quality standards are high. We have personally vetted each company we work with overseas and visit them at least once per year to make sure that they maintain their standards. All of the companies we are working with are making strong efforts to support, train, and grow their staff.
