About Us
JewelCast began in 2011 when there was a gap in the market for a good quality casting company who could serve the jewellery trade.
We are very lucky to call the historic Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham our home and we are proud to be a part of a wonderful community and trade.
Since we started, we have continued to grow and evolve which has allowed us to adapt to the ever-changing market and needs of our customers and seen us invest in and embrace new technology such as 3D printing.
For us customer service is at the heart of everything we do, and we want you to feel valued and to know that we are always here to help.
We pride ourselves on the quality of our castings with thorough Quality Control checks throughout the casting process and with staff who are extremely knowledgeable and with a passion for what they do.
