The Finishing Process

At Loren Castings, we know that jewelry casting is just the start of creating the pieces your customers want. Jewelry finishing is where your designs really start to shine! Learn more about the process, and trust the team here at Loren Castings to make your jewelry dreams a reality.

Cleaning

This is the first step after manufacturing to remove sand, scale, and any excess metal from your design. There are a number of methods used to clean manufactured jewelry, including sandblasting and chemical applications to remove carbon deposits. While cleaning is the first step of finishing jewelry, it doesn’t end here — the pieces will be cleaned throughout the process.

Polishing

Polishing helps remove any traces of filing or sanding. It leaves a more refined surface with a slightly dull finish, reducing the appearance of flaws. This step of the process typically involves the use of abrasive belts or discs.

Tumbling

Tumbling typically involves placing the jewelry pieces into a tumbler with a media, such as steel shot. This step helps improve the shine and brightness of jewelry pieces.

Buffing

Buffing is the final step of the finishing process. This includes the use of fabric wheels and compounds to remove any marks from abrasion and produce a very smooth polished surface. There are a number of finishes that can be achieved throughout this process, from a mirror-like high shine to flat matte surfaces or textures like hammering or brushing.
