We work closely with our factory partners across Bangkok and Jaipur, hand-picking them to align with our values –
their sustainability initiatives are a key part of our relationship.
All of our factories craft with 100% certified recycled metals and, like us, are Responsible Jewellery Council and UN Global Compact certified. These certifications mean we have confidence in their social, human rights and environmental practices.
Our suppliers follow international guidelines including OECD, The Responsible Minerals Initiative and LBMA Good Delivery to ensure transparent sourcing of precious metals. Our metal and chain refineries are RJC certificated, with certified recycled gold and silver sourced from industrial, electronic and jewelry industry waste.
We’re committed to seeing the full supply chain of our pieces, from design to development to your door.
Kicking off this project, we’ve partnered with Vayuu to create our first edit of lab grown diamonds pieces with innovative
technology that gives us new levels of transparency. With more styles coming soon to our Product Passport, watch this space.
