Cushion Cut Moissanite
Cushion Cut Moissanite Private Label Carton: Alloy, Karat and the Cost of a Color Cha - HOLYCOME
Cushion Cut Moissanite: tolerances, cost structure and the reject rule for US wholesale buyers.
Alloy, Karat and the Cost of a Color Change
The brief was simple: 200 cushion Cut Moissanite, 925 silver or 14K gold with GRA-certified moissanite, delivered before April. The run that arrived carried 17 pieces with double refraction read, and the buyer spent USD 20-75 on sorting before the goods reached a shelf, on a 200-piece Private Label Carton order at USD 33-228.
The incoming report named double refraction read and the purchase order did not. On a Private Label Carton run that gap between documents is the whole reason a tray fails inspection, shipped as private-label carton with hangtag and certified GRA report.
We did not touch the retail price. We changed what travels with the private-label carton with hangtag carton, and the Private Label Carton account stopped re-inspecting every tray, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 33-228.
What US buyers Check Before They Sign
A quote for cushion Cut Moissanite usually states carat weight or metal type, and stops there. The four points below are what actually decide whether a run sells through or comes back, which is USD 33-228 on the Private Label Carton schedule.
| Spec point | Common trade output | HOLYCOME standard | Cost if missed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stone colour consistency | Graded by eye under D65 | Colour matched to a retained master stone, per tray | Repeat colour complaint in the same SKU |
| Sizing drift across the run | Not measured | Go/no-go gauge on every size, drift held under 0.15 mm | Resize queue and reship cost |
| Clasp spring life | Sampled by hand | Cycled 500 times on a jig per lot | Detach claim and brand damage |
| Prong tension and seat depth | Checked by feel at the bench | Pull-tested per piece, seat depth written on the sheet | Stone loss and total replacement |
Each line above is a gauge check, not a marketing claim. A factory that cannot state them in numbers is quoting an opinion about cushion Cut Moissanite, on a 200-piece Private Label Carton order at USD 33-228.
Private Label Packaging for cushion Cut Moissanite
Private label changes four things and none of them is the piece: the stamp, the hangtag, the box and the barcode. Get those four aligned before the first bulk run or the carton arrives with your name spelled two ways, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 33-228.
The stamp goes inside the shank or on the clasp tag, and it has to be small enough not to break the surface on a thin cushion Cut Moissanite. Below 0.8 mm of shank width we recommend the hangtag only, and 200 pieces leaves Wuzhou in private-label carton with hangtag at USD 33-228.
Cartons are quoted at 200 pieces with the label printed, not stickered, because a sticker on a matte box reads as a repack. Lead time adds three days for the print run, which is why private label starts later than stock, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 33-228 in private-label carton with hangtag.
Where USD 33-228 Per Piece Actually Goes
At USD 33-228 per piece there is no room for hidden cost. The table shows where the money sits and which line a supplier can actually compress.
| Cost line | Share | What moves it |
|---|---|---|
| Base metal or alloy for cushion Cut Moissanite | 30% | Alloy choice and casting yield |
| Stone or melee for cushion Cut Moissanite | 20% | Sieve range and lot batching |
| Setting and finishing labor for cushion Cut Moissanite | 19% | Jig design and bench minutes |
| Plating, polish and QC for cushion Cut Moissanite | 12% | Per-tray versus per-piece checks |
| Packaging for cushion Cut Moissanite | 19% | private-label carton with hangtag |
A supplier with no bench minutes per piece has never costed cushion Cut Moissanite. Ask for minutes and the reject rule before you ask for a discount, priced at USD 33-228 for the 200-piece Private Label Carton run.
The Three Failures We See Most in Incoming Samples
girdle chipping
Stones set with a tight prong and no seat cut chip at the girdle during setting. The chip appears after shipping, not on the bench, quoted at USD 33-228 per piece in private-label carton with hangtag.
The commercial effect is stone swap and a disclosure issue, typically USD 12-20 per piece. Buyers who have seen it once put it in the purchase order; buyers who have not usually discover it on the first return, and 200 pieces leaves Wuzhou in private-label carton with hangtag at USD 33-228.
double refraction read
Moissanite shows doubled facet reflections under a loupe. Buyers who compare it to diamond without disclosing this face a return, not a defect, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 33-228.
Our countermeasure is a gauge and a written limit. It adds about 17 seconds per piece and removes the defect from the run rather than from the carton, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 33-228.
color batch drift
Two lots graded near-colorless can sit two shades apart under daylight. Batch the stone buy per order rather than across quarters, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 33-228 in private-label carton with hangtag.
In a 200-piece run this typically shows on 17 of pieces. Catching it means measuring color consistency within one lot at the tray level, not inspecting the finished carton, certified GRA report and packed private-label carton with hangtag at 200 pieces.
Order Terms, Sample Timing and Packing
The commercial frame is short enough to state in full. Minimum order is 50 pieces per design, and mixed designs travel in one shipment, so a 200-piece Private Label Carton order can carry three or four models without a separate setup charge. Sample pieces leave in 3-5 days when the components are in stock, and a new model adds about twenty days before the first article exists, and at USD 33-228 for 200 pieces that is the number the buyer signs.
Payment is 30 percent with the order and 70 percent against the bill of lading, with the balance window stated on the invoice rather than agreed by message. Prices quoted at USD 33-228 are FOB Guangzhou or Shenzhen; DDP is quoted separately because the duty line moves with the tariff schedule and not with our cost.
Packing follows the private-label carton with hangtag format at 200 pieces to the carton, and the packing list carries SKU, size and stone size so receiving can count without opening every box. Private-label cartons add three days for the print run and must be approved before the first bulk order, not after it, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 33-228.
Certification is GRA report for the lots that carry it, with a batch report and per-piece measurement of color consistency within one lot for the lots below the threshold. The document set travels with the shipping papers, which is what a customs broker asks for at the port rather than after clearance, the figure being USD 33-228 for a 200-piece run.
A rejected tray is settled inside the same order cycle against the retained reference piece. If the difference sits on our retained sample we replace or credit; if it appeared in transit we split the assay cost and file with the carrier, and that rule is written on the order before the deposit clears, certified GRA report and packed private-label carton with hangtag at 200 pieces.
The Sample Approval That Survives Production
A buyer who understands this about cushion Cut Moissanite negotiates differently, and usually negotiates less, priced at USD 33-228 for the 200-piece Private Label Carton run.
The commercial version of this question for cushion Cut Moissanite is simple: what does a failure cost the buyer, and who pays it. In our terms the answer is a replacement inside the same order cycle, with the retained reference tray as the arbiter, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 33-228.
That clause matters more than a discount on cushion Cut Moissanite. A 4% lower unit price disappears on the first rejected tray; a written responsibility clause does not, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 33-228 in private-label carton with hangtag.
How the Second Order Becomes Cheaper
For cushion Cut Moissanite at this price band, the honest answer is a range rather than a point, and the range has a reason, and 200 pieces leaves Wuzhou in private-label carton with hangtag at USD 33-228.
We run this check per tray rather than per carton because the defect that matters on cushion Cut Moissanite is the one that repeats. A single odd piece is noise; a pattern across one tray is a process problem and it will be in every tray made after it, with GRA report and private-label carton with hangtag stated on the same sheet.
The report the buyer receives states the count per tray, the measured average and the outlier count for cushion Cut Moissanite. It is deliberately unglamorous, and it is the document that settles most disputes before they start, priced at USD 33-228 for the 200-piece Private Label Carton run.
How a Repeat Order Gets Built
Nothing in this sequence is clever. Each step exists because skipping it produced a specific failure on a previous order of cushion Cut Moissanite, and the Private Label Carton quote for it sits at USD 33-228.
- Agree the stamp position, the hangtag copy and the box print before the first carton.
- Print the cartons and hangtags in one run: a sticker on a matte box reads as a repack.
- Set the barcode and the FNSKU mapping for every SKU before the label file is approved.
- Build the first carton at the quoted quantity so the pack-out is proven, not assumed.
- Hold a retained carton as the pack reference for every reorder.
Reorders run 12-15 days because the model, the gauge set and the signed spec stay in our system between the Private Label Carton runs, shipped as private-label carton with hangtag and certified GRA report.
What This Means for a First Order
A first order of 50 pieces per design is a measurement, not a purchase. It shows how color consistency within one lot and girdle integrity after setting behaves on this line and whether the QC sheet matches the carton, certified GRA report and packed private-label carton with hangtag at 200 pieces, which is USD 33-228 on the Private Label Carton schedule.
Six weeks of testing is cheaper than a season of returns on cushion Cut Moissanite. That is the entire argument for a small first order, the figure being USD 33-228 for a 200-piece run.
Freight, Duty and the Arrival Check
At 200 pieces the carton count drives freight more than the weight. private-label carton with hangtag packs tighter than a display tray and saves a pallet position, and 200 pieces leaves Wuzhou in private-label carton with hangtag at USD 33-228.
FOB Guangzhou or Shenzhen is the default on cushion Cut Moissanite. Buyers new to the American bridal market take DDP once and switch after they see the breakdown, which the Private Label Carton file records at USD 33-228 in private-label carton with hangtag.
If double refraction read shows in the arrival check, the retained tray decides ownership. Keep the GRA report sheet beside the packing list, which is how the Private Label Carton account reads it at USD 33-228.
