Ethical Sourcing and Fair Trade
The Importance of Ethical Sourcing and Fair Trade in Jewellery
At Romy Edgar Jewellery, I believe true beauty comes from the integrity behind each piece. That’s why I use ethically sourced, recycled materials and ensure fair trade practices in every creation. While I handcraft each piece with care, the materials I select are responsibly sourced to ensure both the planet and its people are treated with respect.
What Is Ethical Sourcing?
Ethical sourcing means choosing materials that come from suppliers who prioritise sustainability and fairness. I use recycled sterling silver, gold, and ethically sourced gemstones to create jewellery that’s not only beautiful but also responsible.
Why Fair Trade Matters
Fair trade ensures workers receive fair wages and safe working conditions. By using fair trade materials, I support ethical practices and contribute to better livelihoods for workers, particularly in industries that often face exploitation.
The Beauty of Handmade Jewellery
What makes handmade jewellery truly special is the craftsmanship that goes into it. Every piece I create is made by hand, which means it’s unique, full of character, and made with love. Unlike mass-produced items, each piece tells a story and carries a personal touch. When you wear handmade jewellery, you’re not just wearing an accessory—you’re wearing a piece of art, crafted with care and dedication.
The Impact of Ethical Sourcing and Fair Trade on You
When you wear one of my pieces, you can feel good knowing that it was made with care for both the planet and the people behind it. Choosing jewellery made with fair trade and ethical materials means you're supporting a jewellery industry that values sustainability and social responsibility.
By choosing ethical, handmade jewellery, you're making a conscious decision to support positive change.
