The question of whether to use lab-grown or natural diamonds in our bespoke designs is always led by the client. Creative director Sadhbh will help guide and educate you in your decision based on our experience and knowledge. Whichever you choose, we are always mindful about who we source from, only working with suppliers who are transparent about the social and environmental sustainability of their stones. Lab-grown diamonds are sourced only from ethical European companies who share our values. Their wider availability in recent years means that we can offer clients lab-grown stones that are better value than their natural counterparts and have a lesser impact on the environment. For those who are drawn to the inherent romance and rarity that only a natural diamond can bring, we also source exquisite natural diamonds at the request of clients, prioritising traceable, artisan-mined gems. We acquire coloured and fancy cut gemstones in a similarly mindful manner, working with generations-old businesses and dealers who trade in antique stones. These eloquent experts tell the story of their gems, from their creation in the earth millions of years ago to their setting in jewels for aristocratic families and, finally, their arrival in our hands. We also work with clients who have inherited treasured pieces of jewellery that are no longer worn. Using our bespoke service, we can rework designs and reuse precious stones, creating beautiful new family heirlooms.
