It’s always been our mission to create stunning, high quality pieces, but not at the expense of the environment. Ethical practices and responsible sourcing are at the heart of everything we do.
BEAUTIFUL ACCESSORIES THAT DON’T COST THE EARTH
We don’t believe in being part of the fast fashion merry go round. Our jewellery is designed to have enduring appeal, be interchanged and layered to offer endless styling possibilities and take you through life’s adventures. Our tiaras and headpieces are made to cherish and pass to a new generation of brides. We care that the journey of each piece from conception to arrival with you is a sustainable journey.
SUPPLY CHAIN
THE JOURNEY
We’ve partnered with our trusted suppliers and craftspeople for many years to ensure a reputable chain. We don’t use low quality materials and the Responsible Jewellery Council certified factories we work with are obliged to source the most sustainable materials and ensure the welfare of everyone involved in creating our pieces.
SECOND LIFE
WE’RE RECYCLING
It’s not enough that we don’t design throwaway pieces, we want to reuse the metals that others throw away. Whilst we use a proportion of recycled metals for our pieces, we are working towards a goal for our designs to use as much recycled materials as possible to give them a new life.
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX
We want you to love the experience of unboxing your Ivory & co. pieces and to be able to gift them with pride, so we’ve designed beautiful, luxury packaging. But it’s been designed to be eco friendly. Our larger boxes are biodegradable or can be recycled, whilst the jewellery boxes have been designed to never throw away, but instead be repurposed as a forever storage box for your treasured Ivory & co. jewellery pieces.
Don’t want the box? No problem, just include the message at checkout and we’ll send without the box packaging.
