Stones
Note diamond shape, size range, colour and clarity targets, and any fancy coloured diamonds or gemstones such as emerald, ruby or sapphire.
Metal and finish
Choose metal colours and purity, finish, and any hallmark or stamping your market requires.
Quantities and timing
Give realistic quantities per design and the date the pieces must reach you, including any fair or season deadline.

- Agree on references: sketches, photos or existing pieces the atelier should follow.
- Ask how samples, approvals and changes are handled before production.
- Clarify packing, shipping and import documents for your country.
