This is a journey that is never finished, there is always more we can do. Here’s what I have in place so far:

• All metal used on pieces designed from 2021 is recycled. This is 100% recycled silver and brass, including chains, earring posts and scrolls and jump rings.

• Everything is made in my studio apart from findings (this is chains, jump rings and earring posts and scrolls). For these I use suppliers who manufacture in the UK so I can be sure the workers are protected by strong labour laws.

• Boxes are made from recycled board, in the UK and are recyclable.

• Paper elements such as business cards, care cards and tissue paper are made from recycled paper.

• Jesmonite is an eco-friendly resin, meaning that is non-toxic and VOC free, it is water based and its components are sourced locally to where it is produced in Nottingham.

• My studio is powered by renewable electricity

• I reuse all metal offcuts and as much Jesmonite as possible (in terrazzo pots!)

• I have reduced my use of harmful chemicals in the studio - substituting traditional pickle for citric acid for example.
