Types of Metals & Gemstones for Jewelry
BLENDING MINDFUL MATERIALS AND INTENTIONAL DESIGN FOR DELECTABLE YET ACCESSIBLE COLLECTIONS
Natural Stones
We use natural gemstones like garnet, prehnite, and moonstone for their uniqueness, richness and depth. Hand-selected for their quality, durability, and character, no two stones look exactly alike, making every piece one-of-a-kind. We work with trusted partners to source responsibly and ensure long-lasting wear.
This commitment to quality is reflected in the range of our gemstone collection. From our gold vermeil rings to our sterling silver necklaces, many of our favorite designs feature these all-natural gemstones.
Lab-Grown Stones
Our sapphires are lab-grown, offering the same structure, brilliance, and clarity as natural gemstones. We choose lab-grown stones for their lower environmental impact, ethical sourcing, and accessibility. With fewer inclusions and greater consistency, they allow us to offer beautiful, high-quality gems.
Whether we’re pairing them with our polished bracelets or setting them into our multi-stone earrings, these lab-grown stones are just as delicious as their all-natural equivalents.
14k Gold Vermeil
We utilize 14K gold vermeil for the sophistication and shine of solid gold, while at a more accessible price.
Our gold vermeil jewelry is crafted with a thick layer of genuine 14-karat gold (measuring 2.5 microns) over a base of sterling silver, never brass. That means that every one of our gold pieces are made from a combination of only precious metals, surpassing the industry standard for gold vermeil, offering durability, lasting color, and is generally safe for sensitive skin.
While it resists tarnish, it's still important to handle vermeil with care.
Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is valued for its durability, shine, and versatility, which is why you'll find throughout our collections.
Our sterling silver jewelry is made from 92.5% pure silver combined with harder metals, like copper, for a balance of shimmer, strength, and mineral quality. This attention to detail ensures our pieces retain their brilliance and beauty.
While sterling silver does naturally tarnish over time when exposed to air and moisture, proper care helps preserve its brilliance. It’s also hypoallergenic for most wearers and great for everyday wear.
The high-quality materials we use are the basis of everything we do; they reflect the care and curiosity we instill into every one of our pieces. The combination of gemstones and precious metals forms the backbone of our designs.
