Sustainability

Everything that we create and buy has a multifaceted impact on our world. From that item we treat ourselves to on payday, to a gift we send a loved one to make them smile, each has its very own story and leaves its own footprint. It is my hope and mission to ensure that the impact that Dione Fine Jewellery has on our world is a positive one and that any order placed with Dione Fine Jewellery is one that you can truly feel good about.

Each piece of Dione Fine Jewellery is lovingly and individually handcrafted and tells its own story. It is our hope that our pieces and their stories will resonate with you and will become a part of your own, beautifully unique, life story.

We believe that a special jewellery collection is built gradually and should consist of fewer, more meaningful pieces, designed with love and crafted to last.

We are currently working on ways to be able to offer a recycling program, whereby customers will have the option to return unwanted or no longer needed of pieces of jewellery, which can then be reintroduced into the production process, recycled and turned into new, meaningful future heirlooms. 

Each Dione Fine Jewellery piece is lovingly designed and handcrafted in the UK by Caitie in her Farnham-based studio, using 100% recycled Sterling Silver and Gold. Where items are cast or plated using gold vermeil, these processes are carried out by local businesses who's ethics mirror our own.

Every part of our production process views sustainability with importance equal to the beauty of the finished product at the end of it. We believe in using high quality, recycled and recyclable materials in the production of every single one of our pieces and in the packaging used for your order. It is our hope that the pieces that we design and create will become much cherished heirlooms, passed down and loved for generations. 

Where gemstones are used in our pieces, they are ethically sourced using trusted UK-based suppliers. We have started introducing lab-grown diamonds to our collection, which have the benefit of being both carbon-neutral and conflict free, as well as being fully-traceable. Wherever possible, we endeavour to use recycled diamonds as a means of reducing the demand for diamond mining. We also love using grey, 'salt and pepper', diamonds in our pieces, which were once regarded as a by-product of the diamond industry but which are spectacularly unique and beautiful in their own right. 

Each Dione Fine Jewellery order comes packaged in 100% recycled / recyclable / reusable and degradable packaging. It is my hope that you will reuse the postage box to send something to a friend or family member or that you will recycle it responsibly. The pouches supplied with each order are degradable and have been designed to minimise tarnish to your piece. We no longer send jewellery boxes with each order, but offer them as an additional upgrade, so as to reduce the amount of cardboard ending up in recycling bins.

Dione Fine Jewellery is always working on new ways to lessen the environmental impact of our production process and to increase the positive impact that we have on our world. For any queries, please don't hesitate to Get in Touch.

With all of my love, always,

Caitie x
