Diamonds

Natural Diamonds

Diamonds are one of the hardest natural substances found on earth. All of our natural diamonds are within the GHI color range and SI-I 1-2 clarity. In addition, our trusted partners only use Kimberley Process-compliant natural diamonds.

 

The Kimberley Process (KP) is a multilateral trade regime established in 2003 with the goal of preventing the flow of conflict diamonds. The core of this regime is the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS) under which States implement safeguards on shipments of rough diamonds and certify them as “conflict free". Today, participants actively prevent 99.8% of worldwide trade.

Lab Grown Diamonds

Same sparkly quality, made by science. Our lab grown diamonds feature the same physical and chemical properties as natural diamonds and are a solid option for those seeking great value and incredible diamond payoff.

  

Lab grown diamonds are graded the same as natural diamonds, assessing the 4 Cs (carat, clarity, color, and cut). They can be produced with fewer impurities and inclusions, leading to potentially higher clarity and color grades.They are also SCS Global certified, recognized as the top benchmark for sustainability, meaning each stone meets the highest responsible luxury standards for lab grown diamonds.

Precious Metals

14k Gold

Solid gold is a precious metal that will not oxidize or discolor. 14k gold has a higher percentage of alloyed metal making it more durable and resistant to everyday wear than 18k gold. Our 14k white gold pieces are finished in rhodium plating, which gives them extra shine and durability.

To help reduce our impact on the environment while still supporting local communities that rely on mining, all our pieces are made from 95% recycled gold and 5% newly mined gold (including 14k gold and 18k gold vermeil). There is no difference in quality between recycled and newly-mined gold.

We aim to prioritize certified recycled gold across our collections while ensuring any new, responsibly mined gold is traceable to suppliers who are certified against international sustainability standards and best practices such as the Responsible Jewelry Council.

Sterling Silver

In 2022, we worked with our suppliers to produce 92% of our silver jewelry from recycled sources. This recycled percentage highlights our continued efforts to reduce our impact on the environment and increase traceability of precious materials across our supply chain.

18k Gold Vermeil

Not to be confused with regular gold plating, gold vermeil is a thick, long-lasting layer of 18k solid gold over high-quality sterling silver. We use 18k gold that is 2.5 microns thick, as required by the Federal Trade Commission to classify vermeil, layered over 925 sterling silver.

Titanium

Titanium is a durable, highly corrosion-resistant, and lightweight metal, making it extremely comfortable to wear.

More Materials

Natural Gemstones

All of our gemstones are genuine mineral stones that are highly valued for their beauty, longevity and rarity. We use an array of high-quality, natural gemstones.

Button label

Pearls

We use cultured pearls from oysters and freshwater mussels that we carefully select for our pieces. Pearls are sensitive in nature, so be sure to treat them with love.

Enamel

Enameling is a technique where a glossy substance is applied to the surface of metal. To ensure our pieces are more durable, we use cold enamel, a.k.a epoxy resin enamel, that doesn’t contain glass.

"Thanks so much for sending such joy my way! I was impressed from the moment I opened my package. Each piece of jewellery was individually wrapped to look like a million dollars ... almost too good to open! The jewellery itself is awesome."

Jan - New Zealand

"My silver handmade chain is my favourite necklace ever. It's stunningly simple, yet each tactile link is individually forged and different from the others. A beautiful investment piece from a talented designer who knows how important good communication and customer service are."

Tess

"I was a bit hesitant to purchase anything from a different country. I decided to order a pair of earrings and to my amazement they arrived without a hitch. They are beautifully made, and well constructed. I get a lot of compliments on them."

Sheri - USA

"Where do I start! So many positive things to say ... Beautiful quality and design. Great small China business with wonderful ethical and environmental values ... I love this jewellery and hope to eventually have one of everything!"

  • Responsibility Report

    We worked with Mejuri to approach sustainability with social justice in mind including the health and wellbeing of their employees and communities.

    By working with other brands, this work will help them to use their influence to support women’s access to safe healthcare.

  • Materials & Care

    We put a lot of consideration into the materials that we use at Yueming Jewelry and strive to use only the best.

    Any wastage that is created from our production process is recycled and eventually makes its way back into a different cast piece.

  • Recycle Your Jewelry

    Millions of diamonds have already been extracted from the earth. We work with long-standing trusted partners to select the finest recycled stones from around the world.

    The beauty of using diamonds that already exist in the world is their minimal environmental and social impact – they are of the highest quality and in pristine condition, they just didn’t come from newly mined materials. All of our recycled diamonds receive GIA certifications.

  • Our Warranty

    If your Jewelry item has minor damage due to wear or an accident within 2 years of purchase, please contact us. Depending on the issue, we may be able to repair it for you with no additional costs.

    In some cases there may be an additional cost for materials or labour. There may also be a shipping charge for repaired items to be returned to you.
