Responsible Sourcing at Makriadis Jewelry
At Makriadis Jewelry, our commitment to exceptional craftsmanship goes hand in hand with our responsibility to uphold ethical practices throughout every step of our production process. From the sourcing of our materials to the way we interact with customers, we ensure that every choice we make reflects our core values: integrity, transparency, and sustainability.
Ethically Sourced Materials
We only work with suppliers who share our standards for ethical mining, fair labor practices, and environmentally responsible sourcing. All our diamonds and precious gemstones—whether natural or lab-grown—are obtained from trusted sources that adhere to internationally recognized protocols.
Conflict-Free Diamonds
Our natural diamonds are guaranteed conflict-free and are sourced from vendors who comply with the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS). This international system prevents the trade of conflict diamonds and ensures traceability from mine to market.
Lab-Grown Diamonds – A Sustainable Choice
For those seeking an environmentally conscious alternative, we offer a wide selection of lab-grown diamonds. These diamonds are chemically and physically identical to mined diamonds but are grown in controlled laboratory environments with minimal environmental impact and no risk of contributing to conflict.
Responsible Gold and Precious Metals
All our gold is sourced from certified refiners.This ensures that our metals are recycled or ethically mined, reducing our ecological footprint while upholding human rights and safe labor conditions.
Transparency & Accountability
We believe that our customers deserve full transparency. That’s why we are open about the origins of our materials and the choices we make. Each piece from Makriadis Jewelry comes with the assurance that it was created with care, respect, and responsibility.
Our Ongoing Commitment
We continuously evaluate and refine our sourcing practices to remain aligned with the highest ethical standards. Our goal is not only to craft beautiful jewelry but also to foster a more sustainable and respectful industry for generations to come.
