Ethical Policy

We adhere to strict guidelines covering all aspects of production and supply. All our in house manufactured 925 sterling silver jewellery is crafted using 100% recycled silver with the exception of a very small amount of sourced items which are manufactured using RJC approved suppliers. The entire supply chain is fully documented and traceable, ensuring no minerals from conflict areas are used in the manufacturing process. All production stages are REACH and SEDEX certified, guaranteeing high standards of health and safety, fair wages, and protection for our staff.

In pursuit of our green goals, we are dedicated to minimising waste and reducing energy consumption. As the leading supplier of ethically sourced and manufactured jewellery, our production has achieved a three-year certification from the Responsible Jewellery Council with the highest possible score. We are proud to contribute to the roadmap to zero as production increases solar energy usage and ensure safe water recycling and disposal.

Although we currently package each piece of jewellery in a plastic bag to prevent tarnishing during storage, we encourage customers to reuse these bags for handy storage to keep their pieces tarnish-free. We use biodegradable bags wherever possible, though not all sizes are available. Our postal packaging is recycled and recyclable.

As early members of Ecologi, we offset our travel carbon footprint. Please take a look at the projects we have helped fund around the world over the past few years!

Charity and Community Support

We are a family-run business, proud to be associated with a fundraiser initiated by the late bestselling author, Lucinda Riley. In 2016, she approached us to create a charity charm bracelet for her No. 1 bestselling book series, The Seven Sisters. All profits from each sale go to educating and feeding a child for a year through the children's charity, Mary’s Meals. We make no profit from this venture and are delighted to be in the eighth year of this incredible project! Learn more here.

We also support the local adult homeless charity Emmaus by donating any unworn returned pieces for sale in their shop.

"The donations made over the years by our good friends at International Collection have made a real contribution in our struggle against homelessness. They have helped us provide a home and meaningful work for those who have experienced homelessness. Their wonderful jewellery and gorgeous accessories are a natural addition to our huge range of pre-loved clothes, helping us stay at the cutting edge of fashion.We would like to give everyone at International Collection a heart-felt Emmaus thank you and look forward to continuing our great work together.“ - Emmaus Brighton, UK.

We also sponsor YMCA Downslink Group homeless charity for children and young adults in the UK.
