Special care was taken to ensure that the material used to craft the creations was beautiful, highly-performant, and ethical.

Artisanal and small-scale mining involves millions of men and women worldwide, working on an individual basis, in family groups or cooperatives, using relatively simple methods of exploration, extraction and processing. Responsibly extracted gold from artisanal and small-scale mines is essential to our sourcing strategy, as it allows us to have full traceability from mine to market, while contributing to a positive socio-economic and environmental impact.

As early as 1978, we were one of the first manufacturers to equip ourselves with our own foundry. Thanks to this independent approach, we are not only able to guarantee the origin of the gold we use in our production, but are above all able to directly resmelt gold scraps and production waste in order to recycle our unused material.
