We are a small business interested not only in the final result of our creations, but the origins of their components also. Every time we make an order for new materials, we try to source closer providers and learn more about how and where these pieces originate from... We are always trying to better ourselves so that we know that our treasures have been sourced from and looked after in the most ethical and sustainable manner possible.
As any beginner business, finding the best places to shop from with a small starter investment can be quite frustrating, keeping in mind also that when we make initial orders, we never really know what we are going to receive until we open these packages when they arrive... But that is what it's like to search for the companies you want to work with, you'll go through a few until coming across the reliable ones! We are still finding our own feet, and through trial and error we are slowly but surely evolving.
Our packaging has always been biodegradable, and always will be! We are not interested in wholesale sales or any large number of creations... There is a magic in keeping limited stock and small batches... This means your jewelry is more unique and difficult to find anywhere else in the world!
We are considering bringing our shells back into fashion! We began our business with them, and we think it is most definitely time to give them a new look in near future collection... So what do you think? Giving these natural treasures a second chance at glowing in life is a very responsible and beautiful way to use charms on our jewelry, as we know where they are sourced from (handpicked by ourselves), and there has been no harm towards any human/animal in obtaining and creating them (except maybe our fingers with our hole bearing tools from time to time, and we can certainly live with that).
