All jewellery is handmade and shipped from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and therefore is exempt from tariffs for USA customers under CUSMA, the free-trade agreement. I always ship with a certificate of origin for customs.

*Caveat on using the term “recycled gold”:

While I am very careful to source my precious metals only from SCS® certified suppliers (SCS® stands for Supply Chain Sustainability; they are the global leader in the field of sustainability standards and third-party certification). Most of my precious metals suppliers are also members of the Responsible Jewellery Council. However, I want to point out that ‘recycling gold' is not what is commonly understood by the term.

True recycling avoids things ending up in landfills. Gold, of course, wouldn’t.

Instead, gold is simply melted, refined and repurposed.

Although SCS® certified refineries must maintain auditable records of their suppliers, there are loopholes globally which make it very easy for gold from unregulated and/or illegal sources to enter their supply chain.

This makes even 'certified recycled' gold untraceable.

Flow Pendant No. 09 with diamond in Fairmined ECO 18k yellow gold

Flow Pendant No. 09
“Rabbit in the Field”

In the creation of my one-of-a-kind pieces, I often am met with particular stories about each. For this one, the idea of a rabbit peaking out between grasses, perhaps at the edge of a clearing, came to mind.

That rabbit is of course signified by the mine-to-maker-traced 2mm Canada Mark diamond – tracing number CMM-030943 – with F-G colour and VS2-SI1 clarity. The striations appearing in the solid 18k gold circle come from the ancient Japanese technique of Mitsuro Hikime: local beeswax and Portuguese pine resin are melted together and folder over and over again to create this rich texture in wax, which is then cast into the most ethically mined gold I can find, mined at the artisanal mine Oro Puno in Peru.

This pendant is proudly made of certified Fairmined™ Ecological gold, meaning:

• Small-scale operations with minimal environmental impact
• Guaranteed minimum price for workers
• No use of toxic chemicals such as mercury
• Purely mechanical extraction
• Safe working conditions
• No link to conflict zones
• Better trade relationships
• Fairmined Premium for social, economic and environmental development
• Rehabilitation of native ecosystem

With the purchase of this pendant, you improve lives. It’s gold is traced meticulously, and audited by 3rd parties. This truly is Gold To Be Proud Of.

The pendant is shown here on a neck-cable in vermeil: sterling silver with thick gilding of gold. It can go on an existing chain you might have, or I can source one for you.
