Ethics
Upholding ethical standards is critical at Veale Fine Jewellery.
Diamonds, Gems
& Metals
Stones
All our stones are sourced from a trusted supplier whom we have a long-standing relationship with, who guarantees non-conflict diamonds covered by the Kimberly Process. The Kimberly Process prevents conflict or ‘blood’ diamonds, illegally traded to fund wars, entering jewellery supply chains.
Metals
All our ‘Fresh’ metal comes from trusted suppliers with a comments to using recycled metals where ever possible. 90% of our metal supplied last year was from a recycled source.
No metal from Russia will be used in any of our pieces. This is a commitment we made after their invasion of the Ukraine.
Manufacturing
All our jewellery is made in the UK, either in-house or with a handful of trusted craftsmen. We do not work with any mass-production warehouses in developing economies where it’s harder to guarantee fair and ethical working conditions and practices.
