Our Wholesale Gemstone Collection
Our gemstone range is organised into four categories, each designed to serve different needs within the jewellery industry:
Gemstone Strings are strands of natural semi-precious beads, ready to be cut and shaped into your own designs. They are the go-to choice for jewellery makers and designers who want full creative control over their pieces, from bracelets and necklaces to anklets and custom accessories.
Gemstone Bracelets are fully finished, ready-to-sell pieces made from natural stones. Ideal for retailers looking to stock a complete product without any additional assembly, they come in a wide variety of stone types and styles to suit different markets and price points.
Gemstone Bracelets with Steel Parts combine natural gemstones with stainless steel elements for a modern, durable finish. These are particularly popular in the men's jewellery segment and with brands targeting a contemporary or premium aesthetic.
Gemstone Necklaces offer a versatile finishing piece for any jewellery collection. Whether used as a standalone product or paired with matching bracelets, our gemstone necklaces are available in a range of stone types and lengths to suit both casual and fine jewellery styles.
Types of Gemstone Beads
Natural Gemstones
Natural gemstones are made from naturally occurring minerals and are prized for their unique patterns and colour variations — no two stones are identical, which makes them especially appealing for premium and artisan jewellery.
Semi-Precious Gemstones
Semi-precious gemstones are the backbone of most wholesale jewellery ranges, available in a huge variety of colours, shapes, and sizes and suitable for everything from everyday fashion jewellery to high-end boutique collections.
Dyed and Treated Gemstones
Dyed and treated stones offer more vibrant or consistent colours, which is particularly useful when designing around a specific colour palette or seasonal collection.
Polished and Faceted Gemstones
Polished and faceted stones add a refined, reflective finish that works well in statement pieces and necklaces where light and shine are part of the appeal.
