Gold
Embirikos uses recycled and Fairmined gold.
Fairmined is an assurance label that certifies gold from empowered responsible artisanal and small-scale mining organizations who meet world leading standards for responsible practices.
This certification guarantees that the gold has been extracted in harmony with nature, human dignity and sustainable development, contributing to the transformation of lives in these mining communities.
Ariana Embirikos is a certified Fairmined gold jeweler, and part of the ARM - alliance for repsonsible mining.

Diamonds
Although it is not always possible to ensure traceability of diamonds, especially in smaller sizes, Ariana aims to exclusively use ethically sourced diamonds.
Starting with Perpetuum Jewels, whose diamonds are either antique or contemporary in origin, are certified as post-consumer recycled by SCS Global Services, a US environmental standards and auditing firm.
Every certified post-consumer gemstone you source from us carries a unique ID number which corresponds to an entry in the Perpetuum database. You can verify their provenance and quality information on the database. On single stones over a half a carat, this number may also be found laser inscribed onto the girdle as permitted by the gemstone.

Aside from the SCS Global services certification, Embirikos pieces primarily use diamonds that are Kimberly Processed or from traceable Canadian mines.

Colored Gems
Embirikos sources gemstones form artisanal and small-scale mining operations whenever possible. Most of these gems are mined by hand, lessening the environmental impact.
