OUR PLEDGE
We believe in transparency. As an advocate for diamond mining communities, global societies and the Earth, we are putting a modern twist on an outdated industry.
We pledge to use ethically sourced materials to craft your conflict-free jewellery. By following sustainable practices, we are able to push for a more socially responsible diamond industry.
Our Promise
At Paredes & Co., we believe that true beauty is not just skin deep; it also lies in the ethical and sustainable practices that define our brand. Our commitment to ethical sourcing and responsible production is at the heart of everything we do, ensuring that every piece of custom fine jewellery we create not only shines brilliantly but also aligns with our values.
Sustainably Sourced Materials
​
We take great pride in our rigorous selection of materials, always striving for the highest standards of sustainability. Here's how we ensure our pieces are not only exquisite but also eco-conscious:
Natural Diamonds: Paredes & Co. is committed to the responsible sourcing of natural diamonds. We only work with suppliers who adhere to the Kimberley Process, guaranteeing that our diamonds are conflict-free and ethically mined.
​
Lab Diamonds: As part of our commitment to sustainability, we proudly offer lab-grown diamond as a responsible alternative to natural diamond. Lab-grown diamonds are ethically sourced, have a reduced environmental impact, and offer exceptional quality and transparency.
​
Moissanite: For those who prefer a more affordable sustainable alternative, we offer moissanite, a lab-grown gemstone that sparkles just as brilliantly as natural diamonds. Moissanite is eco-friendly, as it minimises the environmental impact associated with traditional diamond mining.
Gold: Our gold is sourced from responsible mines that prioritise ethical and environmentally friendly practices. We use recycled gold whenever possible, reducing the demand for new mining operations.
Sterling Silver: Our sterling silver is crafted from recycled materials, minimising waste and supporting a circular economy.
​
Craftsmanship and Transparency
​
Beyond sourcing ethical materials, our commitment to ethics extends to the craftsmanship of our custom fine jewellery. We are dedicated to:
​
Artisanal Craftsmanship: Each piece is meticulously crafted by skilled artisans who share our values. We celebrate the artistry and expertise that goes into creating unique jewellery.
​
Transparency: We are open about our sourcing and production processes. We invite you to ask questions and explore the origins of your jewellery because we believe that transparency is the foundation of trust.
​
A Greener Tomorrow
​
Paredes & Co. is actively exploring ways to further reduce our carbon footprint and environmental impact. Our goal is to leave a positive legacy for future generations.
​
Giving Back
​
We are committed to giving back to the communities and environments that support our craft. A portion of our profits goes toward charitable initiatives that promote ethical mining practices, environmental conservation, and the well-being of our global community.
