Sustainability & ethical sourcing

Expedition sourced gemstones

We are proud of the advances we are making in pursuit of a pioneering a new era of responsible luxury. We aren't here say we are perfect, we simply want to explain our approach, the positive practices we adopt and highlight our continual pursuit of perfection...

This all starts with our expeditions... With annual expeditions to far flung corners of the earth in search of precious gems, we want to immerse you in our world. We are building long term personal relationships to create a sustainable future for the industry we love.
