SLIMMS JEWELRY DEVELOPMENT
From first concept to finished jewelry, SLIMMS manages the development process across product strategy, sourcing, CAD, prototyping, manufacturing, packaging and production.
For founders, designers, retailers and brands who want to create jewelry without building the infrastructure to do it themselves.
CONCEPT TO COLLECTION
Creating jewelry requires more than a good idea. It requires the right product strategy, materials, technical development, manufacturing partner, quality control and production process behind it. SLIMMS brings these moving parts together.
You bring the vision. We manage the journey from concept to finished product.
SOURCE TO BRIEF
You don't need to know the manufacturer.
You need to know what you want.
SLIMMS works with an international network of suppliers and manufacturers to source jewelry and materials according to your brief, budget, quality requirements and quantity.
We assess the options, coordinate the sourcing process and bring you the most appropriate solution.

Your ideas are translated into production-ready product.
We coordinate CAD development, technical specifications, sampling and prototypes, refining the product before production begins.
