CB Fine Jewelry Ltd. Becomes Thailand’s Fine Jewelry Manufacturer of Choice for Designers and Brands Worldwide

With component costs skyrocketing this year, fine jewelers in the United States and Europe have increasingly been seeking to lower their costs by outsourcing their manufacturing to high quality international producers.

Established in 2003, the American owned and operated CB Fine Jewelry makes the transition to Thailand-based manufacturing a smooth one for their U.S. and European clients. The company’s 3,000 sq. feet manufacturing studio, located in the Bangkok suburb of Lad Krabang, is a creative workforce of over 200 master craftsmen, designers, cad model makers, and customer service reps who work almost exclusively to support branded collections, prestige jewelers and designers. CB Fine currently produces 5000 pieces per month, at wholesale prices ranging from (US) $200-$2000.

CB Fine currently specializes in production of four key styles of jewelry for discriminating trade customers: Designer Vintage, Antique Reproduction, Wire-set Openwork, and European Contemporary. According to CB Fine president Carl Blackburn, the Designer Vintage collections are revivalist re-interpretations of Art Deco, Edwardian, Nouveau, and Victorian fine jewelry. “These pieces are created in 2-3 tone gold and platinum and are hand-set with diamonds, and a percentage feature rubies or multi colored sapphires,” says Blackburn. “Our artisans pride themselves in their mastery of Old World style handcraftsmanship. The pavé settings, fine hand-filigree, milgraining, and hand-engraving represent some of the finest precious metalwork you’ll ever see.”

CB Fine’s Antique Reproductions are precise replicas of antique originals from the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries. These collections showcase pavé and bezel set antique rose-cut diamonds, as well as antique French-cut and sugarloaf cabochon-cut fine rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. Custom-cut precious color stones are individually calibrated and cut to fit intricate and delicate precious metal mountings.

CB Fine’s Wire-set Openwork collections are defined by airy, lacey, open wire-work with diamond melee prong-set directly onto the wire. Finely beaded diamond settings with rows of diamonds are set with no metal borders, and are held in place only by miniature discreet gold prongs rising straight up from the gold wire beneath the diamonds. This produces the striking visual effect of diamond melee floating freely in rows, supporting popular shapes and designs.

For its European Contemporary collections, CB Fine creates the shiny sleek and edgy looks made popular by Cartier, Bulgari, Piaget, Boucheron, and other legendary continental brands. Rounded curved edges; bright-cut walls rising from beds of finely pavé-set diamonds; sharply angled shiny edges; oversized pavé prongs holding oversize melee…all come together to create that ultra-chic yet classic look that European consumers adore and which CB Fine handcrafts to perfection.
