The Most Ethical and Sustainable Luxury Jewellery Brands

Bario Neal is a custom jewellery designer that creates handmade rings and fine jewellery with conflict-free diamonds and other gemstones. The brand uses lower-impact materials, including reclaimed precious metals, Fairmined gold, and more ethically sourced stones to bring to life each of its uniquely designed pieces.

Luxury handmade jewellery from designer Melissa Joy Manning. The stunning pieces are crafted locally from recycled silver and gold sourced from a Green Certified refinery. The brand’s artisans design jewellery to be treasured and to last, redefining what "precious" means by creating pieces that are unique to the wearer, instead of contributing to a culture of disposable fashion.
