Fairmined gold, a mindful choice
100% made in Belgium
Line Vanden Bogaerde exclusively uses Fairmined gold for her wedding rings, engagement rings, and solid gold jewelry.
As a buyer and wearer of her jewelry, you can be certain about the origin and mining conditions of the gold.
Fairmined gold makes a huge difference
Fairmined gold makes a huge difference for miners, their community and the environment.
You are guaranteed that the South American gold miners receive a fair wage, that their working conditions are monitored (protective clothing, safety regulations, etc.).
The ecological impact of gold mining is minimized by avoiding mercury and other toxic substances in the process.
While many jewelry labels now claim to use recycled gold, it's important to remember that all gold used in jewelry is ultimately recycled.
Gold is an incredibly durable and valuable material, and it's highly unlikely that any gold, regardless of its origin, would be simply discarded.
All gold, recycled or not originated from mining. What matters to me is the ethics behind that mining. Fairmined gold ensures that the mining process is ethical and sustainable, unlike with recycled gold where the origins are often unclear.

How sustainable is your jewelry?
While sustainability is a hot topic in the fashion world, the jewelry industry has been relatively quiet on the matter. How green and ethical are our pieces of jewelry?
Three Belgian designers offer their insights.
Luxury must be fair
Growing up with a great sense of responsibility and respect for people and the environment, Line realizes all too well that jewelry - and especially its raw materials - are not beyond reproach.
