Seaglass
We handpick 100% of our sea glass ourselves from various beaches on the South Coast of England (and occasionally other beaches in the UK). 75% of the time we walk to our local beach to search. This means that our seaglass collecting travel creates a small amount of emissions. Beachcombing is 100% ethical and sustainable, we are literally removing pollution from the natural environment. We are also passionate about cleaning the beach and removing litter or plastic if we
come across it whilst beachcombing. We also take part in beach cleans with various charities and non-profit organisations, such as The Captin Paul Watson Foundation & Nurdle Coasts. -
Recycled Materials
All of our jewellery uses recycled sterling silver (925) or fine silver (999) which is equal in quality to unrecycled silver and is fully traceable by the UK's top precious metals bullion supplier. Any scraps and offcuts are always recycled, nothing is wasted here.
Pieces made from silver clay, such as our OG Shark Tooth Necklace or Shell Necklaces are also made from recycled fine silver. Metals found in old X-ray plates and film negatives is recycled and turned into silver dust which goes into the clay!
-
Packaging
We present our jewellery in fully recyclable cardboard jewellery boxes, including the insert, or raw, unbleached cotton pouches. Whichever packaging you choose will be branded with our logo with a stamp made from environmentally sourced oak and natural rubber. The company, Get Stamped, also plants trees to offset the wood used, find out more here. We have also taken the Get Stamped Plastic Free Pledge meaning all our packaging is 100% plastic free. If you see sellotape on your package, don't worry, its's made from cellulose and is compostable!
