AAs you may know, instead of manufacturing large batches, every jewelry item is made-to-order in South Germany, making sure no resources or precious metals are being used without a clear purpose.

Our Vermeil-jewelry is made out of 24k gold - which is the purest gold - and a thickness of 2,5-5 micron (the industry standard is just 1,5 micron).

Firstly, every single jewelry piece gets casted (meaning liquid sterling silver is poured into a mould!) and after that personally hand-finished by our goldsmiths. The last step is called galvanization: At this stage, your jewelry gets purified in silver or gold (we use recycled gold, melted in Belgium), gloss improved and its durability strengthened, so it is flawless for years to come.

Our 14k solid gold pieces are often used as engagement or wedding rings as they’re made to last a lifetime, just like the love they seal. With their ageless designs they will definitely be an eye catcher and what’s more? They’re also waterproof, by means they are quite literally a lifelong partner as you can let them on whilst showering, going swimming etc.

The Fair Bands Collection is crafted from 14K solid Fairtrade-Gold sourced from certified mines in the South of Peru and responsibly sourced diamonds. Together with makers from Hamburg and Fairtrade, we want to help make mining gold safer and fairer. All jewelry is made-to-order and from mine to you, each gram of gold is transparently traced. Learn more here.

What is the material of our Fair Bands collection made of?

58.5% of the material is Fairtrade certified fine gold.

The remaining 41.5% consists of copper and recycled silver, which are sourced from RJC certified suppliers.

We love incorporating bling into our designs. We use both Swarovski crystals and gemstones. We use gems that are fairly sourced from different countries in South Asia, South America, and East Africa.

Once sourced they are cut in Germany and Sri Lanka. We value transparency and therefore only work with partners that have built a sustainable, socially responsible, and traceable supply chain that helps support local communities. The Swarovski crystals are precision-cut crystal glass gems that are crafted in Austria.
