FAQ

Ordering Cameo brand dinnerware is fast and easy. All the products shown on our website (www.cameochina.com) are in stock and ready for order immediately.

Contact your local restaurant supply store and inquire if our products are available through their business. We work with a wide network of wholesale partners who are as dedicated as we are to providing the highest level of customer service in the foodservice industry.

If your local supplier is not one of our privileged network, dont despair. Contact us by phone at 1888.722.2636 or by email at sales@cameochina.com and it will be our pleasure to direct you to one of our trusted partners.

Cameo dinnerware is not available for direct order. Our priority is to connect each and every Cameo customer with an experienced sales representative to assist you with your order and to provide the after-sales service you deserve.

Custom decoration projects completed at our factory require numerous logistical considerations as well as several pre-order requirements. In order to streamline all the applicable details Cameo China has developed two website links. The first is a short list of the major factors that could influence a decision to go forward or not with any particular project. If a customer is satisfied that they can respect the initial, basic order criteria then they can consult the ‘detailed’ order criteria and then they can contact you to comply with all the pre-order instructions and obligations.

Please review the following details:

  •  Logo specifications: the best digital format is (AI) Adobe Illustrator. PDF or JPG are acceptable, but must be at least 300 DPI. All design or logo decorations must be identified by supplying size dimensions and placement position(s)

  •  due to the nature of high-temperature decal firing, the resulting logo, or decoration, will not be identical to the digital format

  • Cameo strongly recommends that each customer order a quantity of 2.5 to 3 times the minimum quantity required. This
    recommendation takes into consideration any uncontrollable future order delays. Cameo China will always maintain an
    inventory of the plain white version of each item ordered in case a customer requires additional quantities before the
    decoration order delivery date.

The production of sample(s) will allow you to understand and visualize how each hand- painted item is unique as well as how the high-temperature ink can vary very slightly from a specific Pantone numbered color. Please be advised that production and transportation fees will apply for every sample piece ordered. Please contact your local Cameo team member to discuss all the details. If preferred, an electronic proof can be provided for approval. This method can accelerate the approval and production schedule.

10. Your RAINBOW dinnerware will be hand painted by one of Cameo’s expert craftsmen. Every Rainbow pattern order is completely unique. The uniqueness comes from the production technique of applying your chosen color by hand. In any artistic endeavour the artist’s brush technique and the related pressure applied during the application process, seasonal climate variances and other factors will produce a product that will not be identical from one individual piece to another. Also, you can expect that the finished products may vary slightly from the approved test samples. Cameo’s Rainbow collection of unique hand-painted dinnerware will be an instant success. Your customers will be amazed at the experience that you have provided for them and they are sure to reward you with their compliments and their loyalty.
