The Rise of Jewellery with a Conscience in Australia
Ethical Jewellery: The Rise of Jewellery with a Conscience
Seasons Emporium is seeing the rise of ethical jewellery in Australia and around the world. Ethical jewellery is jewellery which is verified to have no negative impact on the workers producing it. Previously, you may not have known if your purchase of diamonds or gemstones was using low-paid labour, or inadvertently funding a conflict in another country. Today, you can trace the materials of ethical jewellery to their source and make informed decisions that are guilt free. Find out more about our favourite ethical jewellers: Noosa Amsterdam, Linda Tahija, Palas Jewellery and Murkani Jewellery.
The Ins and Outs of Ethical Jewellery Ownership
Here are a few tips for ethical jewellery investment. Know where your jewellery is sourced. Find out if it contains conflict-free gemstones or diamonds and the production is fair trade. If you purchase from a manufacturer who adheres to ethical practices, the answer will be yes. You might also consider buying jewellery created from recycled materials, or antique jewellery.

Noosa Amsterdam featured completely handmade jewellery and leather accessories. Their Nepal factory is fair-trade certified and they also work with family manufacturers and jewellery artisans around the world.
