Mass produced jewellery is produced in large volumes in an ongoing process, creates identical pieces in factory. Current trend and profit is generally what determines the design. On the other hand, handmade jewellery is each individually crafted. At ZIPEI, each piece is handmade from the beginning - that is from designing, purchasing materials from local suppliers, to making and finishing the piece to its own uniqueness. Handmade jewellery has the texture, weight and quality that mass production cannot copy. No two pieces are exactly identical. With proper care, handmade jewellery should last a lifetime.
