What makes this brand sustainable?

At Eugenie, we do the research to make it easy to find products that you can feel good about purchasing, using, and wearing.

Our team dives deep into the sustainability of each designer we carry so you can be confident that your purchases make a positive impact on the world.

We know sustainability can be a nuanced and complex topic, so we broke it down for you in a way that is simple and easy to understand.

  • Low Waste

    This brand saves all their jewelry, components, parts, and spares. These parts are remade into new pieces in-house or kept for repairs. Faulty or broken items that are unable to be repaired are all sent back to the manufacturer; these pieces and parts are melted down, purified, and recycled.

  • Circularity

    Nina Gordon created their own “buy-back” program so their community could recycle unwanted jewelry. Giving these metals a second life reduces the amount of material that ends up in a landfill, while also reducing the need to purchase new material from the mining industry.

  • Ethical Production

    This brand works with a manufacturing partner in Thailand that meets the following certification standards: Responsible Jewellery Council, ISO 9001:2015 accredited, UN Global Compact, and Flash Jewellery Code of Conduct.

  • Recycled Materials

    Nina Gordon prioritizes using certified recycled metals and biodegradable goods whenever possible including Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) Certified Recycled Silver & Gold. Using recycled metals reduces the global demand on the harmful mining industry.
