Asia’s premier findings manufacturer and custom jewellery house Goldenage International Limited, part of the Australian Pallion group of companies, manufactures high-quality jewellery findings and custom jewellery with a global presence. In 2016 when the market was challenging with uncertainties, the company experienced strong growth in all aspects of its findings sales with outstanding performance mainly from mainland China, Thailand, India, the UAE and Eastern Europe.
Andrew Cochineas, CEO of the group said that general findings evidenced strong and continued demand particularly in 14- and 18-karat gold. Clasps and earring-related fittings were bestsellers. In addition, their new Uniclasp™ has also been sought-after since launch. This new type of clasps, of which Goldenage International holds exclusive global production rights, is unique as it utilises a one-touch clasp mechanism that can be hidden inside beads and pearls.
“The aim of our company has always been simple – to provide the world’s highest quality findings to the global jewellery trade with an emphasis on superior customer services,” Cochineas told Hong Kong Jewellery. “We work with our customers on the basis of partnership, because their success is our success. We are a brand behind brands.”
Having seen that jewellers are increasingly outsourcing specialty production of componentry to specialist manufacturers, Cochineas believes that the demand for quality findings will remain strong in future.
Complementing its existing facilities in mainland China, Goldenage International opened a custom production facility in Hong Kong in 2016, catering to the demand of a one-stop solution for low-volume high-quality custom jewellery production from international jewellery brands, plus jewellery repair services. “The new facility has exceeded our expectations,” Cochineas commented. He senses that the trend of customisation in the jewellery field will continue, and the company will keep focusing on quality, customer services and fast delivery in the future.
