Fashion Revolution Week: I made your jewellery

Fashion revolution week:i made your jewelry

Sustainability

Fashion Revolution Week 2022. Revolution means: to upset something. This also means that the good is already there, somehow already part of something that should only be put in the right light. You just have to bring that to the surface, turn it in such a way that the positive outweighs it. And it's the same with fashion. Sure, it's about beauty. But not only. It's also about people. Primarily about people. This is something that needs to be emphasized.

You know the jumper you're wearing today, the pants, your shoes, who made it all, whose hands went through the fabrics, who sewed them, probably not. Yet that is essential. You wear other people's work on your skin. It keeps you warm, it underlines your most beautiful sides. And yet we know too little about the circumstances and background of the production.on.

That's why we support themFashion Revolution Week 2022 and have opted for radical transparency. We are proud of our partners. We are proud ofour jewelry . And above all: We are convinced that you have a right to know who makes your jewelry and under what circumstances. Quite simply because we want to know that too.

The path of your favorite piece

From the raw material to the yes word. It is a journey full of warmth, full of adventure, full of passion. Each of our jewelry starts with a heat that is to melt away. Because we only use recycled precious metals for our jewelry: 18 carat gold, 925 sterling silver, 18 carat white gold. Our precious metals come from Pforzheim. In a red brick house there is a furnace where dental gold and old jewelry come together. TheRefinery C. Hafnergives old gold a new life and thus creates the basis for our jewellery.

Design meets gold

The gold doesn't even have to change cities. Then: our Kauselmann foundry, who brings the gold in acquaintance with our designs also works in Pforzheim. It's a special foundry. Because: You completely avoid working with mine gold. And their principles are clear: no inhumane working conditions, no environmental pollution, no child labor in gold mining. That's why the foundry decided to use paper bags instead of sending their castings in plastic bags, as is usual. This will save you several million plastic bags! But where they don't save: Casting jewelry of the best quality, custom-fit according to our specifications. But the pure cast is not a finished piece of jewelry. Now it's time to polish.n.

You are golden

Shine bright like a diamond

We stay in Pforzheim. From the outside it looks like a nondescript family home. But if you go inside, you won't be able to stop being amazed. Because what belongs together comes together here. Kling and our jewelry, diamonds and gold. Wilhelm Kling– or as he calls himself: Brilli Willi knows what he is doing. He is a master gem setter. Just like his father. And his father. Every move has been here since 1875. Beauty has had its home here for over 145 years. Because Kling sets our synthetic diamonds in your jewelry. With incomparable precision and a patience that only beauty can evoke.
