ARE YOUR PEARLS HAND KNOTTED?

We hand knot our larger pearls and long ropes of pearls. Please refer to individual designs for exact details.

DO YOU USE SILVER?

All our jewellery is made using 925 sterling silver, which is then plated with rhodium to prevent tarnishing, or 18k gold to give our gold finish.

Explore more in 'our pledge' glossary here

IS YOUR SILVER RECYCLED?

85% of our sterling silver used to make our designs is sourced from recycled silver. To learn more about this please visit OUR PLEDGE page

WHO MAKES YOUR JEWELLERY?

Each design is made by skilled craftspeople. Our knotted pearl designs are hand-knotted by an all female workshop in Hong Kong. For our cast silver designs, we work with a second generation family business in Thailand. Casting silver involves very precise and highly skilled processes. Each item is either stamped or cast and involves a minimum of 6 steps to the finished piece; each step looked after by a skilled crafts person.

WILL MY JEWELLERY TARNISH?

So long as you don't allow harmful chemicals to touch our jewellery, it will be tarnish resistant. Everyday harmful chemicals would include chlorine/pools, saltwater/the sea, suncream and perfume. To note they will all corrode both the plating and damage the 925 silver underneath, as well as destroying the precious 'nacre' that makes our pearls glow.

HOW IS THE SILVER PLATED TO MAKE RHODIUM AND GOLD PLATE

There are different methods of gold/rhodium plating, but the workshop that we partner with use electrolysis, which is dipping the pieces into a chemical solution. This allows for a permanent 'fix' of the plating metal. Explore more on OUR PLEDGES page

WHAT IS A MICRON?

A microns is a scientific measurement used in the process of gold and rhodium plating, and is used to differentiate between lower-end plating and higher-end plating.  Explore our plating offer HERE

HOW DO I RECYCLE MY JEWELLERY BOX?
