Jewelry Findings
Jewelry Findings
The findings range is the B2B engine of this catalogue — crimps, clasps, pins, bails and caps in brass, gold-plated brass and 925 sterling silver, priced per piece and per bag.
Findings are the components that turn beads into jewellery, and in this catalogue they are a first-class range, not an afterthought: the findings section covers crimp beads, earring findings, jewelry pins, clasps, bead caps, spacer beads, chains, jump rings, mountings and settings, tips and end caps, bails, and cord, thread and wire. Several findings lines carry recorded sales figures — a 925 sterling silver eyelet line shows 200 sold on its listing, and silver earwires, crimps and pins are all listed with prices and minimums.
The metal story has two tiers. Brass findings — crimps at $0.02–0.04, pins and tail chains with 14K/18K gold plating — carry production volumes. The 925 sterling silver tier — crimp tubes at $0.18–0.19, eyelets at $0.34–0.35, hook earwires at $2.30–2.50 per pair — carries the precious-metal work. Plating and purity wording on this site follows the listing titles exactly: '925 sterling silver' and '14K/18K gold plated' are quoted as titled, not upgraded into certifications.

How buyers spec findings
- Findings are specified in millimetres and gauges. A crimp is its tube size; an earwire is its wire gauge and loop position; a pin is length, gauge and head style. Quote all of them — 'silver ear hooks' is a family, not a SKU.
- Unit basis changes by line. Crimps sell by the piece, earwires by the pair, pins by the bag. State your quantities in the line's own unit so the quote and the packing list agree.
- Plating is a colour system. The recorded pin and chain lines run 14K gold, 18K gold, silver and rhodium platings. Mixed-plating orders should list each colour as its own line with its own quantity.
- Match findings metal to your market's rules. Nickel and lead rules differ by market. State your market on the inquiry and ask for the material composition of the exact line in writing.
Minimums, units and packing
Recorded findings minimums run from 50 pieces (tail chains) through 100 pairs (earwires) and 200 pieces (crimps, eyelets) to 500 pieces (silver crimp tubes), with pins sold from 2 bags. Confirm the current price, plating stock and packing per SKU — findings turn over fast and listing prices are records, not standing offers.
Buyer questions
Is the '925 sterling silver' certified?
The wording follows the product titles as recorded — 925 sterling silver crimp tubes, eyelets and earwires. Certificates are available upon request; if your market requires assay documentation for a line, name it in your inquiry.
Why are brass crimps so much cheaper than silver ones?
Material. Brass crimps at $0.02–0.04 are production consumables; the 925 crimp tube at $0.18–0.19 carries silver content. Our crimp sizing guide helps you choose by wire and design rather than by habit.
Can findings ship together with beads?
Yes — one inquiry can cover beads, findings, cord and packaging across the catalogue. Ask for metal findings and ceramic or shell lines to be packed separately within the shipment.
