Tell me more about your gemstones.
We exclusively utilize gemstones sourced from conflict-free regions. All of our gemstones are natural and untreated.
What gold do you use?
We exclusively use 18-karat solid recycled gold.
Why is your white gold jewelry more expensive?
Our 18-karat white gold is combined with the valuable metal palladium, which lends the alloy its distinctive shade. Palladium is similar in composition and rarity to platinum, however the metal is more resistant to scratching. Palladium is also significantly more expensive to source than both gold or platinum. However, the use of palladium in our jewelry ensures that our creations are hypoallergenic and long-lasting, so that they may be cherished for a lifetime.
