Gold & gemstones are from socially & environmentally responsible mines

They are fairly traded, ensuring miners receive a fair price for the goods and employees are paid over the local minimum wage

No child labour, forced labour or exploitative practices are used in the mining, refining or trading of the gold & gemstones

Miners directly benefit from the sale of the gold

The gold mines operate an eco-sustainability programme. They do not use cyanide or mercury.

Gem mines are run as co-operatives or where mining rights are owned by non-cooperative businesses, the mining companies re-invest in the local communities (for example, schools, medical centres or micro-investment programmes)

Gem mines operated with the minimum impact on the environment and measures are taken to correct any environmental damage. Traditional artisanal mining techniques are used.

The stones are cut & polished in workshops which adhere to fair trade protocols and ensure health & safety measures are implemented and no child labour is used

Boxes are made from sustainable resources by an EU company and our manufacturer is a member of United Nations Global Compact.

Fifi Bijoux was established in 2006 and was established with the commitment to making a maximum positive impact on mining communities and to work with those projects who demonstrate best practise and ongoing dedication to minimizing and regenerating land suffering environmental damage. Fifi Bijoux is a company which is committed to making a positive contribution to the people and the communities from which we purchase our materials. The brand carries these values to our customers, who benefit from an ethical, luxury product with the added value of knowledge of the provenance of the materials. Fifi Bijoux was founded as a label which believes in promoting positive ethics and which offers an alternative to exploitation, human rights abuses or irresponsible damage to the environment. We do not believe in compromising on uber chic design or luxury.

Precious materials are a valuable natural resource and it’s our belief that by imbuing each product with respect (from mine through to design and in our workshop) our customers takes pride in owning a piece of jewellery which reflects the precious, exquisite nature of the materials we use.

Following our success at London Fashion Week and Berlin Fashion Week, Fifi Bijoux continues to bring you key styles in our hand finished jewellery collections, supplied in stunning luxury gift packaging.
