The manufacturing process begins with the drawing of a sketch that is a sketch of the jewel with the characteristics of the different pieces. Then, this draft is worked on computer using specific software. This step is the 3D modeling that is done with very precise CAD tools. At the end of this operation, the jewel begins to take shape, at least virtually.
Once the modeling is finished, the experts of La Maison Ben Youssef Jewelery proceed to the printing of the file thanks to a printer 3Dimensions of the highest technicality and this in order to obtain a model. This piece will be made with wax and will be the real size of the jewel to create: this step is more commonly called molding.
Once the gold is injected on the final mold, our experts deploy all their concentration for the last step which is the finishing of the piece:
Crimping, polishing and engraving are therefore the last manufacturing points of the jewel. Crimping, the operation that follows casting, requires the use of appropriate tools: a hammer (a tiny electric jackhammer), as well as chisels and stalls of very small size.
