We can indicate pricing for your inspired design after sampling as the techniques/materials change, we only draw inspiration from the collections. The collection is just a display of artistic capacities and is not meant for commercial purposes or sale, it is meant for inspiration only, and to indicate a price for pieces in the collection is nearly impossible.

Can you indicate prices before prototype developments & when can I get a price range for my artwork?

In this segment - It is difficult to anticipate a price range without preparing a sample of actual artwork. there are several ombinations & multiple ways possible to achieve the required product/design. For example – design can be developed using Glass beads, metal beads, plastic beads, and many sub-variants within each type. Then there are different combinations of materials using different techniques and all of this will influencethe prices hence we can indicate the price range only after the first prototype is arrived upon

Do I need to give you a price target? And how do you make sure that you work within that range?

Yes, it is very important you give us a target price range so we will apply suitable techniques, and materials. We insist on this as it is in the best interest of the development. It will help us get the closest possible to our targetson the first attempt.

What if I don’t know the price target/range?

We understand it may be a difficult situation to give a target price rangeblindly In that case, the customer must understand and agree we will always try to give our best and go ahead with the first development and decide in the process. After this development, customers will have a clearer vision to set their targets (not only on pricesbut also on the look, feel, colours etc.) Then it becomes easy for us to rework the developments to meet the set targets of the expected look and feel + price range.

What happens when the prototype is beyond my target price range / beyond my budget?

The prototype is created with the highest qualities and works, but We have different ways/combinations to anipulate/modify/alter the techniques and materials to meet the target price range. We can always find a way out.

Do I have to pay for prototype development?

Yes, you must pay for every development/redevelopment and modification.

What is the cost of one-time development?

The cost of arriving at Development = Actual FOB price + surcharge (Surcharge may vary from 10-40% based on the type of development) (surcharge is only on development and not on actual production, we will reduce the price after the one-time development) Please rest assured that prototypes and sample developments are not our profit-making centre.
We again assure you,
• We do not charge for every pretrial that we have done.
• We keep the sampling surcharges as low as possible.
• We ignore hidden costs like Machine and Manpower down time
We spend more than we charge our clients as our part of the contribution to promote and encouragecustomers for more developments with us as developments are the source of our orders Also sample developments are done by highly skilled artists/designers/craftsmen who are in a highsalary range.
