Ethically Soured Precious Metals

Sterling Silver and 14K Gold

Ethical sourcing is an integral guiding principle for our business. All our precious metals are ethically sourced from a reputable leader in the jewelry industry.

All of the gold and silver we handle is sourced from refiners on the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) list. What does this mean?

The refiners are in good legal standing

They certify and independently audit that all supplies are traceable and conflict-free

We absolutely never use inferior quality 14K gold-plated metals. No matter what a manufacturer says, it will tarnish in a very short period of time.

In contrast to gold plating, gold-filled jewelry is tarnish resistant and can last many years if properly maintained.

The manufacturing process for gold-filled metal is more complex than electroplating.

Unlike gold-plated materials, gold-filled jewelry retains the value of its gold content over time.

All our gold-filled jewelry is made by mechanically bonding a layer of 14-karat gold to a brass core, creating a tarnish-resistant surface where only gold is exposed. The metals are permanently bound together using heat and pressure, then are rolled and drawn to exact specifications.

The industry shorthand notation is "14/20". The first number refers to the karat of the gold and the second is the ratio of karat gold to brass core by weight, which is 5%. This metal cannot be cast.

To ensure the quality of our gold-filled materials, we source 14K gold-filled fabrication metals from leading industry manufacturer LeachGarner.

Certificate of Authenticity

All our sterling silver and 14 or 18K gold jewelry will include a certificate of authenticity
