What does a Master Goldsmith do? +

A master goldsmith is an experienced craftsman who specializes in creating, repairing, and designing jewelry and objects made from precious metals such as gold, silver, and platinum. The title signifies that the individual has undergone extensive training and passed a master's examination to demonstrate their skill. Master goldsmiths combine artistic flair with technical expertise to deliver high-quality craftsmanship, such as jewelry making, gemstone setting, and engraving.

Where do you make your jewelry? +

Each piece of jewelry is created by our Master Goldsmith & Creative Director Malin Carrick and is made in close collaboration with selected studios in Sweden, Europe and Thailand.

Our partners are carefully selected for their long-term commitment to quality, environment and sustainability. Those we work with today are certified according to both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.

What materials do you use? +

We always use recycled metals. In our jewelry collections we use recycled sterling silver 925 and Vermail plating with 18 karat gold and 2.5 micron. In our Fine Jewelry we use solid metals, traceable, conflict-free diamonds or lab grown diamonds.

What is meant by Vermail? +

In our jewelry collections, we use 925 sterling silver as the base material and gild it with a layer of 18K red gold using a technique called Vermeil. This means that the jewelry itself is mostly made of 92.5% recycled silver, mixed with 7.5% recycled alloy metals to provide strength and durability.

The gilding, or plating, consists of 18K red gold and is applied at a thickness of 2.5 microns, which is significantly thicker than traditional gilding. This thickness makes our jewelry not only look exclusive but also more durable and long-lasting for everyday use.

With this technology, we combine sustainable materials with luxurious design to create jewelry that both feels and looks like real gold, but is more accessible and at the same time responsibly produced. Read more about Vermail HERE.

Jewelry care

How do I take care of my jewelry? +

In order for your jewelry to retain its luster and be usable for a long time, you need to take care of it. All jewelry wears out with use and after a while it gets a patina that can be seen as beautiful or that you may want to have restored. Read more about how to take care of your jewelry HERE.

How do I store my jewelry? +

Store your jewelry separately in soft bags or jewelry boxes to avoid unnecessary scratches and tangles.

Can I exercise and swim with my jewelry? +

We always recommend that you remove your jewelry during physical activity, showering, bathing and swimming to avoid unnecessary damage, discoloration and wear. This applies regardless of whether the jewelry is solid metal or vermeil. Read more about how to care for your jewelry HERE .
