Curated gemstones for bespoke jewelry

TOAST TO THE HOLIDAYS AT KITCHEN AT COBBLE HILL

A MODERN MEDITERRANEAN BRUNCH WITH WINE AND GEM PAIRINGS!

Guess what wine and gemstones have in common… they are both expressive of “terroir”… of the earth!

Just as the elements in the soil impact how a wine tastes, the minerals that were present in the earth when a gemstone was formed determine how a gem will look!

These are but a few similarities that may surprise you!

Our experience is designed to nourish appetites, joy, curiosity, and community - and expand things to know and questions to ask about responsible sourcing!

Beyond Kitchen on Cobble Hill’s delectable Mediterranean flavors, guests experienced a flight of 3 wines, paired with 3 gemstones, discovering the dynamic qualities of the gems, up close and personal!

The FINE JEWELRY you choose can support climate action and SDGs!

You may not realize it, but responsibly sourced jewelry can support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. For example, when shopping for an engagement ring, choosing post-consumer recycled diamonds, colored gemstones from artisanal miners, and Fairmined gold are beautiful options that support the above SDGs.

WHAT IS RESPONSIBLY SOURCED JEWELRY?

The phrase “sustainable jewelry” is problematic for many reasons and it may not mean what you think. Greenwashing is prevalent across all industries and the word has become ambiguous and overused.

A better, more holistic goal is responsibly sourcing. Beyond ethical, conflict-free, and traceable, this practice encompasses protecting people, their skills, and the planet. Ideally, this is achievable through vertical integration that enables remote, local economies to sustainably thrive.

When it comes to sourcing gemstones for bespoke jewelry, the trusted partners I collaborate with provide as much information as possible about the who, where, and how of their materials.

THE PROVENANCE OF A GEMSTONE

For example, every gemstone sourced from Nomad’s has an accompanying Provenance Report. The origin is disclosed in 4 possible levels of traceability, with each level corresponding with a degree of certainty of information and history of the stone.

PRECIOUS METALS

For precious metals, this can mean using certified post-consumer recycled gold - or a step further is mercury-free Fairmined gold.

Choosing fine jewelry with Fairmined gold respects people and the planet

WHAT IS FAIRMINED GOLD?

Just as we know where our food is from and who made our clothes, why not the gold in our jewelry? Let’s compare recycled gold versus Fairmined gold…
