Making jewels starts with a creative idea and involves several delicate stages:
choice of appropriate raw material in terms of colour, internal characteristics, size, source, availability and costs;
technical study to establish the type of cut as regards shape, volume, thickness and proportions in order to enhance the physical and optical properties of the chosen material and especially its morphology;
careful assessment of the market and new mining sites so as to ensure continuity in terms of production numbers and costs;
assessment of the most appropriate production site based on type of production, materials to be used, number of pieces and quality standards required.
To achieve this Petramundi's activities include:

prototype preparation at headquarters;
production either in Valenza, Bangkok, India and China;
a wide range of raw materials;
careful selection of single, calibrated gemstones;
laser marking of all material and gemmological certification;
