Production Technology: Sculpted embossing special blue foil for logo, shiny metal pin to attach reversed shopping carrier straps. Italian made box packaging, silver hot stamping on texture blue paper. Nickel tag logo on premium velvet jewelry box with changeable inserts could be used for rings, earrings and necklace. Italian made plastic diamond security case with high-quality plastic box. High-quality ribbon with embossed hand writing slogan. Metal shiny lock for gifting. Lacquered deep blue box for jewelry collectors, handmade in Vietnam. Silk printed scarves inspired from logo mark.
Design Challenge: The most challenging part was production, passing Vietnam import law and quality control, especially most of production was taking part outbound. The production was taking care very carefully to achieve what never happened before in Vietnam. For example, diamond security seal card for investment is one of the first branded one in Vietnam, high-quality like well-know GIA card, where others are still using heat pressed PP cover.
Research: The whole creative process is a deep investigation and researching about all aspects of jewelry and gemstone market, internationally and locally. On personal touch, in order to input brand characters and signify Leman among others, the logo crafting process was a complete reflection of Leman design process for every custom creation. The logo was a Leman collection of all diamonds have been working on so far. Beside sophisticated logo mark, all other brand materials are designed based on minimalism to maintain sustainability for the brand as well as create an environment for their creation to shine.
Inspiration: Starting with the most fundamental ring setting shape, the shape which holds the diamonds and glorifies its beauty, the cross setting. We called it the Leman Star, as the sparkle indicates that jewelry brand symbolism, Leman Star is also seen in the center of the letter E in the logotype. Around the Star, there are various types of diamond shapes crafted one by one asymmetrically. The logo grid system based on the inner grid of the round diamond cut, the most common diamond shape.
Project Duration: Started April 2018 and officially launched 01 June 2019 in Saigon, Vietnam
Operation Flow: Leman Jewelry first came to us with a requirement of packaging system developing and outstretching a better luxurious, unique & personal system. However, what the brand needs is a total refreshment, in order to meet up its high-standard brand spirit, including reconstructing branding system and solving packaging issue. Resulting a hit to jewelry market, level up Leman Jewelry to be the case study for new wave of business improvement, meeting international professionalism in retail experience. It makes customers more satisfied and expand their market wider locally and internationally.
