Strict quality control and material testing. All materials undergo XRF spectroscopy testing to verify metal purity and composition, with results documented and available for customer review upon request.

Transparent business practices and ethical trading. Our partners publish annual sustainability reports that disclose a complete supplier list, environmental performance metrics, and progress toward achieving a five-year sustainability roadmap.

Our partners undergo comprehensive third-party audits every three years to verify continued compliance with over 100 specific provisions in the RJC Code of Practices.

Commitment to responsible sourcing of precious metals and gemstones, including conflict-free materials. All our partners adhere to the Kimberley Process and OECD Guidelines, meeting international human rights and environmental standards.

Complete traceability of our metals from mine to market. Each batch of precious metal in our jewelry is assigned a unique tracking code that links to documentation detailing its journey through every stage of refinement and manufacturing.

Environmentally responsible mining and manufacturing processes. This includes strict requirements for mercury-free gold processing, water recycling systems that reuse at least 80% of water in production, and energy reduction targets of 5% annually.

Fair wages and safe working conditions for all workers in our supply chain. Our partners ensure all workers receive at least 15% above local living wages and have access to comprehensive healthcare benefits, with regular safety inspections conducted quarterly at all facilities.

Zero tolerance for child labor or forced labor. Our partners undergo unannounced verification visits by independent human rights monitors who have unrestricted access to interview workers and inspect documentation.

Support for local communities where our materials are sourced. A minimum of 2% of profits from each mining operation must be directed to community-led development initiatives in education, healthcare, and sustainable livelihoods.

Sustainable land, water, air, energy and waste management. Our partners recover and reuse 98% of metal scraps and implement closed-loop systems that capture and filter 99.5% of chemical agents used in metal finishing.

Our partners have dedicated funding to rehabilitate mining lands, protect water resources, and invest in local community development projects in resource-rich regions.
