            "content": "Hello,\n\nI'm reaching out about your jewelry manufacturing division. I came across Portugal Textile while researching manufacturing partners for my brand Argent West, based in Sweden and your work with recycled silver and sustainable production made me want to reach out. \n\nWe are a brand focused on well made solid sterling silver pieces made to be worn for years. Preparing to produce our first collection of vintage-inspired designs. We use recycled silver throughout, so a partner who already works that way is exactly what we are looking for. Before I share our full brief, I'd like to learn a little about how you work. A few things I'm hoping you can tell me:\n\nDo you take on small, emerging brands? Our first order will be modest around 30 pieces per design and I want to be sure that's a scale you're glad to work at.\nDo you offer CAD design? I'll be providing detailed sketches, reference pictures, and written specifications rather than CAD files, so I need a partner who can take a design from drawing through to a 3D model.\nCan you produce a two-tone finish oxidized, blackened settings against polished sterling bands and chains?\nAre you comfortable with claw collet stone settings, the small multi-prong settings used in antique-style jewelry?\nRoughly what lead times should I expect for samples, and for a first production run?\nYou work with brands worldwide have you worked with Nordic or Scandinavian brands before?\nOur first collection is three pieces a pair of earrings, a necklace, and a ring. Small to start, but I'm building this carefully and for the long term.\n\nI'd love to hear back within the next week or so, and I'll follow up with the full brief and designs.\n\n\n\nWarmly, Fannie Westtorp \n\nFounder, Argent West AB \n\nfannie@argentwest.com \nargentwest.com",

It's exciting to hear about your first collection.\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n1. **CAD Design:** We can work from your sketches and reference images to create the necessary CAD designs for your pieces.\n2. **Two-Tone Finish:** Yes, we can produce a two-tone finish with oxidized, blackened settings against polished sterling bands and chains.\n3. **Claw Collet Stone Settings:** We are comfortable executing claw collet stone settings, including the small multi-prong settings used in antique-style jewelry.\n4. **Lead Times:** For samples, you can expect a lead time of approximately 6-8 weeks. The first production run typically takes around 10-14 weeks after the order is placed.\n\nHowever, I must inform you that our minimum order quantity (MOQ) is 200 units per style. Since your initial request is for around 30 pieces per style, this quantity is below our minimums.

And as Argent West grows our production volumes will grow with it, I'd be glad to revisit working together when our quantities reach a scale that fits your minimums.\n\nThank you again for the helpful information.\n\n\n\nWarmly, Fannie Westtorp \n\n\n> On 25 May 2026, at 11:38, Matilde Azevedo  wrote:\n> \n> Hello Fannie,\n> \n> Thank you for providing the details about your brand and project.
