Responsible Sourcing and Making
Committed to Responsible Sourcing and Making
One of our key values is to carry out and promote responsible practices in the sourcing of our gemstones and the making of jewellery.
This includes, but is not limited to, only using trusted suppliers of our colour gemstones, not involved in handling stones from conflict areas, promoting fair working practices for all workers in the production chain, and ensuring clear communication about the origin and treatment of our stones, wherever possible.
As a proud member of the Gemstones and Jewellery Community Platform, a joint initiative started in 2015 by the Coloured Gemstones Working Group, consisting of Chopard, Gemfields, Kering, LVMH, Richemont, Swarovski, Tiffany & Co. and the Muzo Companies, we uphold the following commitments towards these goals.
Policy and Management
We commit to apply clear policies and appropriate systems to manage our organisation responsibly.
Business Ethics and Integrity
We commit to carry out our business ethically, complying with the law, and preventing all forms of corruption and illegal activities.
Responsible Sourcing
We commit to better understand the source of the materials and products we buy, and to support responsible production wherever possible.
Human Rights and Equality
We commit to uphold the fundamental human rights of each individual, and encourage inclusion and equality in our company, and the wider gemstone and jewellery community.
Labour Rights and Fair Working
We commit to respect the rights of our staff and to treat them justly, employing them with full compliance with the law, and providing fair working conditions.
Health and Safety at Work
We commit to provide safe working conditions for our staff, considering the risks connected to the activities that they carry out, and assure a healthy and hygienic environment.
Environmental Protection
We commit to respect natural resources, and strive to take action to minimise our impact on the natural environment.
Community Development
We commit to support the sustainable advancement of the communities that contribute to and depend on the gemstone and jewellery supply chain, wherever possible.
Responsible Mining
We commit to encourage responsible mining practices to reduce the impact of activities on local communities and the natural environment.
