About Us
Who We Are
Wholesale Jewelry Supply, formerly Foreign Source Ltd, was established in 1985 by Chris Tasca and Joe Montaquila. Its’ purpose was to supply the jewelry and accessory industries with a reliable supplier by way of great prices, delivery and the best customer service in the industry. 40 years later, our mission has not wavered.
Our commitment has remained the same, while the industry itself has seen many changes over the 40 years. Every year our product development team evaluates trends and the tendencies of the market place – along with input from our customers – to continue providing the highest quality products at the most competitive prices and timely delivery.
In 2014, Chris passed away after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Although, a difficult blow for Joe, losing his business partner and longtime friend, he is determined to continue to deliver on all the objectives that he and Chris set forth when they established the company.
Wholesale Jewelry Supply Co. specializes in professional-grade jewelry findings, chain, beads, and wire across a full range of metal finishes, including .925 sterling silver, gold filled, oxidized, copper, stainless steel, and plated metals.
Our findings cover everything from ear wires, clasps, jump rings, and headpins to bead caps and crimps. Our chain selection spans cable, rolo, figaro, curb, snake, and specialty styles - sold by the foot or in bulk spools. Our bead inventory includes sterling silver, gold filled, oxidized, and copper in seamless rounds, spacers, and decorative accents.
