Explore the Wide Variety of Materials for Jewellery Making

The “Materials for Jewellery” family includes different categories of motifs, charms, pendants and decorative components that can be used on their own or combined with each other. Each material has its own appearance, texture and design behaviour, offering different possibilities for the development of complete collections.

Metal Motifs, Stainless Steel and 925 Sterling Silver

Metal components are one of the most essential categories of materials for jewellery making. In the collection you will find pendants, sliders and connector motifs, components for necklaces and macramé, tags, settings, bases and decorative elements in many designs, sizes and platings.

The themes include organic and geometric shapes, Ancient Greek and ethnic designs, flowers, leaves, hearts, stars, moons, religious symbols, letters, numbers, wishes, lucky symbols, filigree and seasonal motifs. You will also find components with enamel, strass, mother of pearl (MOP), embossed or smooth surfaces and different decorative finishes.

Stainless steel components offer a clean and contemporary aesthetic and can be used in minimalist, geometric or symbolic creations. Motifs and 925 Sterling Silver pendants are a suitable choice for more precious collections and for designs that require subtle shine and a classic character.

Wooden, Plexi Acrylic and Wood–Plexi Combination Components

Wooden motifs and pendants add natural texture and a lightweight character to handmade creations. They are available in different shapes, dimensions and themes and can be used in jewellery, macramé, lucky charms, keyrings, wedding favours, candles and decorative applications.

Plexi acrylic components stand out for their clean shapes, vivid colours and wide variety of surfaces. The collection includes solid-colour, transparent, translucent, matt, pearlescent, mirror, glitter and multicoloured materials, suitable for contemporary and statement creations.

Wood–plexi acrylic components make use of the contrast between the natural look of wood and the modern character of plexi acrylic. The combination of the two materials allows the creation of layered motifs with different textures, colour contrasts and a distinctive visual identity.

Handmade Ceramic Motifs Produced in Greece

Ceramic motifs and pendants by Nikolis Group are designed and produced by us in Greece. They are handmade components of our own design, combining the aesthetic identity of Nikolis Group with the functionality required for a component used in jewellery making.

For their production, we use selected raw materials, high-quality glazes and specialised forming, glazing and finishing processes at our factory. Special attention is given to shape, dimensions, thickness, holes and connection points, so that each component can be properly integrated into a handmade creation.

The natural flows, gradients and iridescent effects of the glaze vary during the handmade process. For this reason, every ceramic piece acquires its own shade, texture and final appearance. These subtle differences give authentic character to the handmade production, making every ceramic motif unique and unrepeatable.

The collection includes ceramic pendants, sliders and connector components in many themes, colour options and design directions. They can be used in necklaces, bracelets, earrings, lucky charms, baptism bracelets, keyrings, wedding favours and candles, adding colour, artistic character and the authentic feel of handmade craftsmanship.

Semi-Precious Motifs, Glass Components, Zircon and Decorative Materials

In our collection you will find semi-precious gemstone motifs, pendants, sliders and connectors for jewellery and handmade creations. These ready-to-use components can form the central or complementary part of a design.

Glass components and motifs add transparency, brightness and colour reflections. They are available in different shapes, colours and configurations, including pendants, sliders and connected elements, suitable for necklaces, bracelets, earrings and macramé jewellery.

The collection also includes motifs and decorative components with zircon and strass, which add sparkle and can be used as central details or complementary elements in a design. Acrylic components offer a lightweight and colourful option for contemporary creations.

Shells, corozo and mother of pearl (MOP) components add natural texture and distinctive character. They can be used in summer, boho, ethnic and tourist collections, either as central motifs or in combination with metal, ceramic, wood and plexi acrylic.

Cords, Ribbons and Chains

Cords, ribbons and chains are essential materials for composing and completing a piece of jewellery or a handmade creation. They allow motifs and pendants to be connected while defining the style, movement and overall aesthetic of the final design.

The cords collection includes parachute and climbing cords, cotton cords, leather cords, synthetic cords, satin and macramé cords, waxed threads, linen, twine, rubber cords, metallic threads and other options for different knotting and braiding techniques.

Ribbons are available in different widths, colours, patterns and textures, such as satin, organza, grosgrain, velvet, lace, burlap and cotton or synthetic options. They can be used in jewellery, lucky charms, wedding favours, candles, keyrings and seasonal creations.

Chains include options in stainless steel, brass, steel, aluminium and acrylic, as well as rosary chains and extension chains. The different link sizes and available finishes allow the creation of designs ranging from fine and discreet compositions to bolder and more contemporary styles.

Design, Production and Expertise by Nikolis Group

Since 1987, Nikolis Group has been active in the design, production and supply of materials for jewellery and handmade creations. Our long-standing experience is combined with the development of original collections and the use of different materials, production techniques and finishing methods.

A large part of our motifs and components is designed by the creative team of Nikolis Group and produced in our facilities in Greece. The connection between design and production allows us to consider every product both as an aesthetic object and as a functional jewellery-making material.

When developing a design, we take into account the shape, dimensions, thickness, weight, holes, connection points and the way the component will be used in a creation. In this way, design originality is connected with practical application and the commercial use of the final product.

Our production capabilities include, depending on the material and design, casting of zamak metal components, polishing, surface processing and plating. For wood and plexi acrylic, high-precision laser cutting and engraving techniques are applied, while digital printing and painting allow the addition of colour, illustrations and personalised details.

Polishing and final finishing are applied where the material, dimensions and characteristics of the design allow it. At the same time, the ability to combine metal, wood, plexi acrylic and ceramic broadens design possibilities and supports the development of more complex and layered components.

Custom Jewellery Materials and Professional Branding

Nikolis Group offers custom design and production possibilities for professionals who wish to create personalised motifs, pendants or components for their own collection.

The process can begin from a design, sketch, logo, phrase, symbol or initial idea. In collaboration with our team, the suitable material, shape, dimensions, thickness, connection points, colours and desired finish are examined.

Depending on the material and the technical possibilities, customisation may include laser engraving, digital printing, painting, logo or message application, colour selection, dimension adjustment and the combination of different materials and thicknesses. For metal components, plating options can also be examined where technically feasible.

For professionals and brands seeking greater differentiation, exclusive design and production of components that will not be offered to other customers can be agreed, according to the terms of each collaboration.

The same production capabilities can be used for corporate gifts, conference souvenirs, event materials and professional branding applications. Using metal, wood, plexi acrylic, ceramic or combinations of materials, we can create custom motifs, keyrings, lucky charms, decorative pieces and other personalised components that express the identity of a business.

Controlled Quality and Responsible Production Processes

The quality of a motif or pendant directly affects both the appearance and the functionality of the final jewellery piece. For this reason, we place emphasis on selecting suitable raw materials, monitoring production stages and evaluating the final result.

In metal components, depending on the product, the quality of casting, clarity of design, holes, connection points, surface processing and final finish are checked. In wooden and plexi acrylic components, emphasis is placed on cutting and engraving precision, line clarity and the quality of printing or painting.

In handmade ceramic components, raw materials, glazes, forming, glazing, firing and final finishing are checked. At the same time, the natural variations of handmade production are preserved, giving each piece its unique identity.

Nikolis Group products are selected, produced and supplied in accordance with the applicable requirements and permitted limits of the European regulatory framework corresponding to each material and its use. Where restrictions for specific chemical substances or safety requirements apply, the relevant European specifications are followed.

At the same time, we aim for responsible use of raw materials and production processes that respect people and the environment. More specific claims regarding compliance, composition or environmental characteristics are attributed only to the products and materials for which they can be supported by the corresponding technical data or certificates.

The design variety of Nikolis Group allows professionals to create collections with different styles, themes and commercial directions. The options cover everything from minimalist and geometric designs to organic, boho, ethnic, summer, symbolic, religious, children’s and seasonal motifs.

The wide variety of materials, shapes, dimensions, colours and finishes offers more possibilities for combinations and helps creators develop collections with cohesion and a distinctive aesthetic identity.
