frequently asked questions
-
Yes, we make jewelry using the lost wax method.
Lost wax casting is an ancient technique used to create detailed metal jewelry. It starts with handcarving a piece in wax, which is then coated in a heat resistant material. The wax is melted away, leaving a hollow mold (which gives it the name “lost wax”). The mold is then filled with molten metal such as gold, silver, brass, or bronze. After cooling, the mold is removed, revealing the final piece, which is then polished and refined. This process allows for intricate designs and high levels of detail.
-
Yes, our materials are ethically sourced.
We use 100% recycled sterling silver for our jewelry and our crystals are ethically mined to ensure respect for both the planet and the communities involved. We partner only with fair trade and ethical suppliers who share our commitment to conscious craftsmanship and transparency.
