Be earth-friendly

Responsible fashion is in this year: Change accordingly!

Acting to protect our natural resources is key considering the environmental issues we are facing. Even fashion must be part of helping the Planet by using more sustainable & ethical materials, adding giving-back initiatives that have an impact, and upholding traditional and ethical techniques. Humble and sustainable materials can be handcrafted in unique pieces: the only thing we need is the power of our imagination!

The handcrafted and organic-looking pieces on actress and model Frances Pearson show how sustainable materials are made into one of a kind jewels in our collections

As an alternative, buy a Diamond Tester online or learn other techniques here below. And if you still don't have a diamond, remember to always buy one that has been ethically and sustainably sourced!
