Ethics & Sustainablity

Our Philosophy

At Heyrlome, we believe in quality over quantity and we’ve made sure sustainability is at the core of everything we do to minimise our impact on the planet.
We aim for our jewellery to be cherished and worn for years, not months. Each piece is a modern, timeless heirloom you won’t fall out of love. No to seasonal trends, yes to timeless, modern and unique designs. Each piece can be worn multiple ways and no need to buy a chain or hoop every time you want to add to your collection. No unnecessary purchases, yes to creativity!

Yes to Quality

All our jewellery is crafted by hand using only high grade materials.
We exclusively use 100% recycled silver, reducing our CO2 emissions, and plate each piece with 18kt gold vermeil.
To create gold vermeil, the piece must be crafted in sterling silver and covered in a thick layer of gold (a minimum of 2.5 microns to be precise). This is five times thicker than the average minimum for gold plated jewellery, so vermeil jewellery is durable and high quality. Because we believe jewellery should be worn and loved for years, not months.
We also only use natural semi-precious gemstones in our jewellery, which are all ethically sourced and traceable.

No To Overproduction

Overproduction only leads to huge amount of waste, so our approach is to keep our stock levels low and re-order according to the demand.
By cutting out the middle man, we keep our prices as fair as possible. Which is why you’ll never see a sale on our website.

Eco-Friendly Packaging

All our packaging is made of the most eco friendly materials we could find. No plastic, all recyclable.
Our gift boxes feature fully sustainable materials both inside and out. With natural cardboard construction, FSC paper outer covering and cardboard inserts covered in natural wool-felt, they offer a clean, minimalist aesthetic that puts the focus on our jewellery. Made of sustainable recycled cardboard & paper on the outside and sustainable cardboard & natural wool inserts on the inside, they are one of the UK’s most eco-friendly jewellery packaging options.
And to avoid unnecessary waste, we offer our gift boxes to be added to your purchase as an option. Instead, you will receive your jewellery in a beautiful suedette pouch that will allow you to keep your jewellery safe and scratch free.
