The Art of Diamond Perfection

Manufacturing Process

Design & Planning

In order to produce a unique piece, the very initial step is to create a design.

Mould making is an integral part of the production process. It helps in creating multiple pieces of jewellery of the same design.

Once a design is conceptualized in the mind of the jewellery designer, it is drawn on paper and then into the system.

The process of soldering the wax pieces on a wax stem is called “treeing”. A sprue is attached to each piece which in turn is attached with the stem.

Once the CAD design file is ready, it is transferred on 3D Rapid Prototype system. The resin model is created using 3D Rapid Prototyping system (RPT) which is fully functional.

Casting is a very complex process and requires utmost skilled and experienced casters, karigars and master craftsman for the desired final product.

Crafting & Finishing

Once the raw casting is clipped off from the casting tree, it has a tiny nub leftover at a place where the gold piece was attached to the sprue.

Stone setting is the art of securely setting or attaching gemstone in the jewellery. Different types of setting are used to create varied designs

Filing is a technique that helps in removing excess metal or solder from a piece that is being worked on

This is the final polish of the piece of jewellery. In polishing, the idea is to add shine to the entire piece of jewellery.

Jewellery pieces with diamonds require pre polishing before the diamonds are set.

Quality control (QC) is a procedure or set of procedures intended to ensure that a manufactured product or performed service adheres to a defined set of quality criteria.

Cad

At Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru, once a design is conceptualized in the mind of the jewellery designer, the creative journey begins.
The design is first sketched on paper, where the initial inspiration takes shape. Afterward, it is transferred into the system using advanced Computer Aided Designing (CAD) technology.
This precise digital process allows for the fine-tuning of intricate details and ensures that the design's beauty and craftsmanship are maintained from concept to creation.
Through CAD, we bring our customers' visions to life, merging tradition with innovation in every piece of jewellery

Rapid Prototyping

At Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru, we give utmost importance to the vivid Indian traditions that inspire our designs.
Once a CAD design file is finalized, it is transferred to a 3D Rapid Prototype (RPT) system.
This state-of-the-art system operates on the principle of Direct Light Projection Technology, allowing us to bring the digital design to life with precision. The resin model is crafted using this 3D RPT system, ensuring that every detail is fully functional and exact to the original concept.
This process allows us to blend tradition with cutting-edge technology, creating jewellery that resonates with our Indian heritage and modern craftsmanship.

Rubber Mould

Rubber Mould making is a vital part of our production process, as it enables the creation of multiple jewellery pieces of the same design while ensuring that each piece retains the artistry and craftsmanship of the original.
At Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru, mould making ensures the creation of multiple jewellery pieces while preserving the original design. Using materials like natural rubber, silicone, and metal, we protect designs in moulds for future replication. Our vulcanizing technique guarantees precision, allowing us to produce heirloom-quality jewellery that stays true to the original.

Waxing/Wax Tree

At Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru, renowned for our Indian closed setting diamond jewellery, we begin by producing wax models from rubber moulds.
The rubber mould is placed in a commercial wax injector, where molten wax is pressure-injected into the mould cavity, creating precise wax models for casting.
These models are then soldered onto a wax stem in a process called "treeing," with each model attached to the stem via a sprue.
This meticulous process ensures the precision and consistency needed to craft our intricate, high-quality closed setting diamond jewellery.

Casting

Casting is a complex process that demands the expertise of highly skilled casters to achieve the perfect final product. At Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru, the wax tree is carefully placed in a steel flask and filled with a slurry of chemical powder, which solidifies within an hour.
Our dedicated and experienced karigars (artisans) then transform this into exquisite jewellery, blending tradition and craftsmanship to create masterpieces born from the labour of perfection.
Their precision ensures that every piece of our Indian closed setting diamond jewellery reflects the artistry and excellence we are known for

Grinding

At Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru, our fine karigars work tirelessly to craft heritage jewellery with precision and care.
Once the raw casting is clipped from the casting tree, a small nub remains where the gold piece was attached to the sprue.
Our skilled polishers meticulously grind off this nub using a motorized grinding machine, smoothing the surface of the jewellery. A final polishing is then performed by holding the piece against a spinning grinding wheel, achieving a flawless, smooth finish. This dedication to detail ensures that each piece reflects the beauty and heritage of our Indian closed setting diamond jewellery.

Filing/Assembly

What sets Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru's polishing apart is our commitment to achieving a flawless finish that enhances the beauty and value of each piece.
Filing is a crucial technique used to remove excess metal or solder from jewellery, with tools like files and burrs carefully used to smooth the casting layer.
Assembly, another vital step, involves joining two or more components of the same design using soldering or laser techniques. This attention to detail ensures the perfect assembly of each handcrafted piece, maintaining the precision and beauty that define our heritage jewellery.

Pre - Polishing

What sets Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru's polishing apart is our commitment to achieving a flawless finish that enhances the beauty and value of each piece.
Our polishing process involves three meticulous steps: tumbling, pre-polishing, and ultra-cleaning. For jewellery pieces with diamonds, pre-polishing is essential before the diamonds are set, ensuring a smooth surface and perfect alignment.
This detailed approach results in a stunning, polished look that elevates the brilliance and craftsmanship of our Indian closed setting diamond jewellery.

Diamond Setting

Our Indian traditional closed setting is the absolute pinnacle of craftsmanship, showcasing the artistry involved in stone setting.
This intricate process involves securely attaching gemstones in the jewellery, ensuring both beauty and durability. Various types of settings are employed to create diverse designs.
This meticulous approach allows us to highlight the brilliance of the stones while maintaining the elegance and sophistication that define our heritage jewellery at Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru.

Polishing

A magical shine is added to our jewellery by the skilled hands of our karigars, who meticulously hand-polish each piece.
They utilize a variety of specialized tools, including solid buffs, soft buffs, hair buffs, coin buffs, single line ball buffs, and green rouse for shine.
Platinum polishing rouse and black lustre are used to remove casting and filling layers, while red rouse imparts a brilliant shine.
Finally, white lustre is employed to eliminate roughness, ensuring that each piece of jewellery radiates with exceptional brilliance and beauty. This dedication to detail exemplifies the craftsmanship at Laxmi Diamonds Bengaluru.
