Clients are often more concerned about how much something will cost than how it is produced, and many jewellers don’t even mention ethics. (They don’t want to question the credentials of their other jewellery, OR damage their profits.) But if people REALLY knew what went on, they would be more concerned about how their diamonds, emeralds, gold, rubies and sapphires got to their fingers.
What most people DON’T realise is that it can actually be more cost-effective to source ethical gems.
This ring is made with recycled gold and contains Canadian diamonds and Chatham lab created Emeralds - with the same physical, chemical and optical properties as the ones that come out of the ground. It also has the clarity of top quality mined Colombian Emeralds AND no questionable labour practices are involved. What’s more – it’s a lot less costly.
So for anyone who wants something special and different, who may or may not worry about children going down mines, but who does worry about the household budget, good quality Lab Created gems could be the answer.
Commissioning a bespoke ring may seem daunting at first, and it may take you out of your comfort zone, but with the right advice you can get it right.
