Quality Assurance
Our team optimizes every print — you focus on selling.
Use resin for jewelry whenever possible. FDM layer lines are visible at close range and jewelry is worn right next to the face.
Design clasps and closures that are robust — minimum 2mm thick at any stress point. Thin connections snap after a few wears.
Offer multiple sizes for rings (US 5–12). Size-specific listings convert 40% better than "one size" with no guidance.
Surface finish matters enormously. Post-process with fine sandpaper (400–800 grit) and clear coat for a professional feel.
Design matching sets (earrings + necklace + bracelet). Sets sell at 60–80% higher average order value than individual pieces.
Weight matters — keep pieces under 15g. Heavier 3D printed jewelry feels cheap compared to metal. Lightweight = comfortable = premium perception.
