Sustainability At Jewelry Yueming
Learn more about how our beautiful heirlooms are made and discover our key sustainability commitments and goals.
A Commitment to Protecting
Our Environment
A real luxury purchase is one you can feel good about buying. We’re on a mission to transform the luxury jewelry industry to one that
is regenerative, ethical and transparent.
Every key decision we make – from where we source our precious gold and diamonds to the beautiful blush pink packaging that
wraps every Jewelry Yueming piece – is viewed through the lens of sustainability. We don’t have all the answers, but we are constantly
assessing the impacts of our choices, and exploring how we can make better ones.
- Every Jewelry Yueming piece is made using 100% recycled solid gold.
- All of our lab-grown diamonds are fully traceable and carbon-neutral.
- Over 80% of the classic diamonds in our collections are recycled.
- The packaging used to ship our products is recyclable and our mailers are 100% compostable.
“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.”

Our Precious Heirlooms
Our Gold
From the casts to the clasps, each of our precious pieces is made using 100 percent recycled gold. Our recycled gold is sourced from our carbon-neutral partner supplier in Germany, who uses renewable energy and clean, closed-loop systems to reduce energy and waste in the refinement process.

Our Diamonds
We are committed to reducing the demand for mining wherever possible. We work with recycled diamonds in our classic collections and have introduced incredible carbon-neutral lab-grown diamonds. We also continue to champion the unique beauty of grey diamonds, long considered a by-product of the diamond industry.

Lab-Grown Diamonds
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. -
Recycled Diamonds
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.

Mined Diamonds
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.
Our Process
Every Yueming piece is made by hand by our dedicated goldsmiths and jewellery team. We are incredibly proud of the care that goes into making each piece and are committed to keeping these generations-old crafts in Ireland.
We take a non-seasonal approach to designing our collections and deliberately keep them small to avoid overproduction and waste. Our pieces are created in small batches or individually made to order.
We are as passionate about embracing new technologies like CAD and cutting edge materials like lab-grown diamonds as we are about supporting traditional crafts and techniques, such as lost wax casting, an ancient craft that dates back thousands of years.
Our Packaging
As much a beautiful design object as functional packaging, this suite has been designed with interactive elements to make your marked moments, proposals or otherwise, as memorable as possible. our goal was to create packaging that could live on as keepsakes and equally be easily recycled.
Each piece is made almost exclusively with natural, biodegradable and sustainable materials, from paper and card to silk and organic cotton. We have avoided the use of plastics in every possible area and opted for recycled plastic where unavoidable, minimising our carbon footprint at both creation and end of use, moving us ever-closer to our commitment to become plastic free by 2025 and carbon neutral by 2023.
Responsible Sourcing
We believe that the highest levels of accountability and transparency are the future of modern luxury, and we’re committed to helping
to drive this meaningful change across our industry.
To do this, we’ve partnered with a number of players across the industry to support one another in our collective mission towards
improving our social and environmental performance.
