(rapaport.com) - When award-winning jewelry designer and manufacturer Christian Tse first dabbled in 3D printing in 2001, the technology’s capabilities were rudimentary.

The result was the Production System P-1, which debuted to the trade in 2022 alongside Tse’s precious-metal print powders in silver, gold, platinum, and rose gold.
