How to Sell Jewelry Wholesale

 If you are a creative person, with a great sense of 

style and flair, you may be able to start your own 

business – making and selling jewelry wholesale. 

Because people are so very unique, they want 

jewelry pieces that are unique – one-of-a-kind 

pieces that nobody else in the world owns! This 

desire can make you quite a bit of money – 

simply start your very own jewelry wholesale 

company.


You can easily order wholesale supplies from 

hundreds of companies around the globe online – 

at really low prices. It is important to keep up with 

how much each part of each piece of jewelry costs 

you, and to get a total cost of each piece, including 

any expenses that you had for having supplies 

shipped to you. With the total cost figured, you can 

easily set your prices by adding 15% to the cost. 


You can sell your pieces in a variety of ways. You 

can open your own online wholesale jewelry store, 

sell to local jewelry stores, rent booths at local flea 

markets and fairs, or advertise your jewelry making 

skills and take orders for unique pieces. You can 

also sell your pieces on consignment at boutiques.


You want to be known for your quality. Always 

select the highest quality gems and stones for your 

pieces, and make sure that the craftsmanship is 

outstanding. Become exclusive, and more people 

will want to purchase your pieces – and never make 

any two pieces alike. 


However, you can also go the other route and make 

hundreds of identical pieces, as they are ordered.  

You do this by making one very unique, high quality 

piece, and showing it to your local jewelry stores. 

Ask them if they would like to order in bulk, then fill 

the order. 


Another option is to do catalog sales. Make enough 

pieces to fill a small catalog, and take pictures of 

each piece. Write a description for each piece and 

then put together your own catalog using software 

and a good printer – or send the work to a print 

shop. You can send these catalogs out to a list 

that you obtain from a direct mailing list company.


This type of business does require creativity and 

skill, but it also requires the ability to market 

yourself and your jewelry. You need to have 

business cards printed, and also have catalogs and 

brochures printed as well to market your jewelry 

wholesale business.

Jewelry Wholesale and Estate Sales

Buying jewelry wholesale at estates sales is  actually quite easy. In fact, in most cases, this is  the easiest way to get very rare or old pieces at or  below jewelry wholesale prices! There is, however,  a method to the madness when it comes to walking  away with an heirloom piece at a rock bottom price! Most people have estate sales when a person has  died. Unless the person was extremely wealthy, an  appraisal of all of the items that will be sold is not  done…and in most cases, the people holding the  sale are heirs that simply want to cash in. They  have no idea what the real value of what they are  selling is. Furthermore, these sales are often run  just like your average garage sale, with items  marked at incredibly low prices! You can literally  walk away with thousands of dollars of jewelry for  just a few dollars. Even if the jewelry is not that valuable, the pieces  of the jewelry may be of some use to you when you  are constructing your own pieces. You can  carefully take

How to Select Jewelry Wholesale Beads

When purchasing wholesale jewelry beads, you  must use care. You don’t want to end up with beads  that aren’t worth anything to you! Selecting beads  takes a lot of thought – we aren’t talking about  plastic beads that children use to make jewelry. We  are talking about quality beads used to make grown  up jewelry! Avoid cheap plastic beads. This may be suitable for  some pieces, but it isn’t very durable – or very  pretty. Instead, buy glass beads or Lucite beads.  These are not only durable, they are very shiny and  pretty. They do not have the ‘cloudy’ look of plastic  beads.  Inspect the beads for imperfections if possible.  Beads that are ‘lopsided’ won’t do. Beads that are  chipped, broken, or scratched are useless. Don’t  purchase these beads no matter how cheap they  are! Most jewelry wholesale beads are sold in bulk. In  this case, you probably won’t have the opportunity  to inspect the beads, so ask about the exchange  policy. Will you be able to exchange the beads that  are

Importing Jewelry Wholesale

If you are considering importing jewelry wholesale,  you might want to see what your other options are.  When jewelry is imported, there are additional  costs, such as high shipping costs, that you may  not be prepared to pay. There are also other issues  to consider as well. Customs is a major issue, because some materials  that come from endangered animals are outlawed in  the United States – ivory for example. When  importing jewelry, you need to be sure that all of  the materials that make up the jewelry can be  legally imported.  The possibility of not getting what you paid for is  another consideration that you must think about. If  you order from someone outside of the United  States – where the United States has no legal  jurisdiction – there won’t be anything you can do if  you are ripped off. If you are importing jewelry  wholesale, make sure that you are dealing with a  reputable company. Usually, if you can find the same pieces of jewelry  for sale in the United States, at
