Our Design Department is the nucleus of our jewelry creation, meticulously shaping each piece from concept to realization. We expertly balance aesthetics with functionality, choosing materials that both align with the design vision and exceed client expectations. Detailed illustrations capture every nuance, ensuring precision in details and proportions.

Ultimately, we commit to translating artistic vision into tangible masterpieces.
Boasting deep expertise and refined techniques, our Polishing Department employs tools like whetstone strips, wool wheels, and sandpaper to meticulously refine material surfaces. Depending on the initial texture, we select the most suitable tools to eliminate any roughness, ensuring a finish that's both consistently smooth and of superior quality.
We meticulously match and allocate gemstones based on distinct design specifications, ensuring every stone aligns seamlessly with the envisioned design. Our team, renowned for their unparalleled visual acuity and technical prowess, ensures each gemstone's positioning, orientation, and symmetry adhere to the highest design standards. Utilizing advanced tools, including magnifying glasses and precision lighting, we uphold the utmost quality and accuracy in both gemstone selection and setting. This dedication and expertise allow us to masterfully accentuate the intrinsic beauty and value of every gemstone in our pieces.
Leveraging precision micro-setting machines and refined techniques, we expertly set each gemstone, ensuring they radiate their unique brilliance and meticulous craftsmanship within our jewelry. Throughout the setting process, we combine intricate hand coordination with unwavering focus to guarantee the secure and steadfast placement of every gemstone. With the micro-setting machine, we precisely adjust the prongs or settings to ensure a robust fit for various gemstones. Additionally, we employ fine tools to make minute adjustments and refinements to the prongs, ensuring a snug and secure setting. This task demands immense patience and precision to prevent any damage to the gemstones or the jewelry during the setting process.
Founded over 30 years ago in New York by Chairman Mr. Yan, our company began as a specialized entity in jewelry design, offering exceptional OEM services to renowned brands such as Walmart and Macy's. As the global market dynamics evolved, we astutely recognized Asia's burgeoning potential, prompting a strategic production shift to Guangzhou, China.
However, in response to the changing business landscape in mainland China, we sought new horizons. The result was the establishment of APOGÉE in 2012 in Taiwan. Situated in the prestigious Zhonghe Industrial Park, our state-of-the-art facility signifies more than just a geographic move. It's a commitment to innovation, craftsmanship, and excellence.
APOGÉE, we proudly blend international jewelry production technology with local expertise. Our spacious facility serves as a hub for nurturing Taiwan's jewelry design talent, ensuring that the country stands at the pinnacle of global high-end jewelry production.
