Fine Stingray Jewellery Manufacturer for Global Brands
AKNAS is a Bangkok-based stingray jewellery manufacturer specialising in Galuchat (stingray leather) combined with metal settings, producing handcrafted stingray jewellery pieces for designers, fashion brands and boutiques worldwide. We work through OEM production from your own design, ODM adaptation of an existing style, or unfinished Galuchat leather parts for your own workshop.
Stingray Jewellery Collection for Brands and Boutiques
As a specialist stingray jewellery manufacturer with over 20 years of exotic leather production experience, AKNAS produces a full range of handcrafted jewellery pieces in stingray leather, with python leather also available across selected styles. Each piece combines the distinctive pebbled texture of stingray leather with precision metalwork and, where specified, semi-precious stones:
☞ Bracelets and bangles — our broadest category, covering cord bracelets with removable metal ornaments, layered Galuchat and python cord bracelets interwoven with metal, bead bracelets in round, square and cylindrical formats paired with semi-precious stones, bold men's designs with woven Galuchat cords, and flat or padded bangles available in widths from 10 to 80mm
☞ Necklaces — Stingray string necklaces in 3, 4, 5, 8 and 10mm diameters with silver clasps, available up to 45cm in length and suitable as standalone pieces or as the base for higher-end jewellery designs
☞ Chokers — flat or padded adjustable stingray chokers in 25, 30, 35 and 40mm widths, with or without metal ends, available with custom shapes by special order
☞ Earrings— available as a matching bracelet and earring collection
☞ Custom stingray jewellery— fully bespoke jewellery production from your own designs, technical drawings or reference samples, manufactured in stingray.
All pieces are available with custom stingray leather colour selection, metal finish options (silver, stainless steel) and semi-precious stone selection.
How to Work With Us as Your Stingray Jewellery Manufacturer
OEM: Guided Production from Your Design
Bring your stingray jewellery design (whether a finished specification, an existing sample or a reference image), and we will guide you through producing it in stingray leather. Our team advises on stingray panel selection, metal setting techniques and surface finishing throughout the process, not simply execution from a brief. This route suits designers and brands who want a stingray jewellery manufacturer invested in the outcome, from first sample through to full production runs.
ODM: Adapt Our Existing Designs
Select a jewellery style from our existing stingray jewellery catalogue, and we customise it for your brand, adjusting the stingray colour, metal finish, dimensions or setting configuration. ODM is a faster route to market for brands that want proven construction quality without the time and cost of starting development from scratch.
Stingray Jewellery Wholesale and Unfinished Parts
For designers and workshops that handle their own metal setting, assembly, or finishing in-house, we supply prepared stingray leather panels and cut components from our stingray leather stock. We also supply finished stingray jewellery wholesale for brands and boutiques sourcing ready-to-retail pieces.
Stingray Jewellery Price and Value
The stingray jewellery price varies depending on the design, materials, and production requirements. Because every project is manufactured for a brand, pricing is typically quoted based on your specifications rather than a fixed catalogue price.
Several factors influence the final cost, including:
☞ Leather selection — The quality and size of the stingray skin, the placement of its centre pearl, and the amount of leather required for the design all influence the final cost.
☞ Jewellery format — Cord bracelets, bangles, necklaces, chokers and earrings each require different construction methods and material quantities.
☞ Metal finish — Silver, brass, stainless steel and other metal hardware options affect material cost and production complexity.
☞ Semi-precious stones— Pieces incorporating semi-precious stone selection involve additional sourcing and setting steps.
☞ Level of customisation – Bespoke stingray colours, custom dimensions, branded details or entirely new designs require additional development time.
☞ Order quantity – Larger stingray jewellery wholesale orders generally offer better production efficiency and unit pricing.
At AKNAS, we help clients find the right balance between craftsmanship, material selection and budget. Whether you are developing a limited stingray jewellery collection or planning larger-scale wholesale production, we can recommend the most suitable manufacturing approach for your brand.
