Connecting Jewelry Since 1975

JK Findings logo

JK Findings was founded in Newark, New York in 1975 by John Kaupp as a wholesale supplier of precious metal jewelry findings and chain. Over the decades, the company expanded its product offerings, invested in manufacturing technology, and relocated operations to Rochester, New York to support continued growth.

Today, JK Findings manufactures a majority of its product offerings in the USA while also partnering with trusted global manufacturing facilities. Our team supports customers worldwide through our manufacturing operations, international sourcing capabilities, multilingual website, and dedicated customer service teams.

As one of the established gold filled jewelry manufacturers serving the North American market, JK Findings continues to focus on innovation, quality, and long-term partnerships within the jewelry industry.

In early 2020, JK Findings was acquired by Jim Westman and Tim Tevens of Latitude 27 Capital, LLC upon the retirement of John Kaupp. Their shared experience in growing industrial businesses aligned with JK Findings' commitment to employees, customers, innovation, and continued improvement.

Under new ownership, JK Findings has maintained its focus on outstanding quality, delivery, and customer support while continuing to expand product development, manufacturing capabilities, geographic reach, and technology investments.

Building Long-Term Partnerships in Jewelry

Since 1975, JK Findings has built relationships with jewelry professionals by providing dependable components, technical knowledge, and service focused on helping customers succeed.
