Ethically Sourced Materials

Ethical Sourcing is the process of ensuring that the products made are obtained through responsible and sustainable methods. This includes concern with the workers involved in making them are safe and treated fairly and that environmental and social impacts are taken into consideration.

In jewelry, ethical sourcing effects two main types of items - metal and gemstones. 

.925 Sterling Silver

As part of our commitment to environmental responsibility, our jewelry is crafted primarily from recycled precious materials. Recycled metals are refined back into their pure elements. This returns the metal to the same high quality as newly mined metals. The Sterling Silver we use in our jewelry is purchased in a United States refinery. We also recycle our silver scrap. 

Gold

As part of our commitment to environmental responsibility, our jewelry is crafted primarily from recycled precious materials. Recycled metals are refined back into their pure elements. This returns the metal to the same high quality as newly mined metals. The Gold we use in our jewelry is purchased in a United States refinery. We also recycle all our gold scrap. 

Gemstones

Ethically sourced natural gemstones are sourced in alignment with safe working conditions and environmentally responsible principles. By continually working with our gemstone suppliers to improve standards and traceability, encourage responsible practices.

Laboratory Grown Gemstones are identical chemically and physically to their natural "cousins." Lab created stones offer excellent value and are a responsible choice as they do not require any diamond mining.
