British independent jewellery designer Jo Wood explores the human experience and relationship with nature through Earth casting, the experimental casting technique used to create each piece in her debut collection, 'Touch the Earth'.

“I make jewellery because human connection to jewellery is as deep rooted as our connection to nature,” says Jo.

Every piece of handcrafted jewellery by Jo Wood is unique; while they often relate to each other, no Jo Wood jewellery piece is the same as another.

Ara the altar is based in Manchester and embraces the slow fashion movement.

Ara the altar is characterised by made-to-order adornments. Each jewellery piece is created from 100% recycled sterling silver and gold. Lauren King, the founder and lead designer, explains: "I aim to tread lightly whilst creating eternal pieces that give the wearer a conscious connection with the beauty of our only planet".

April March is a proudly sustainable and independent jewellery brand founded by Sarah Brannagan. With April March, Sarah aims to develop an independent jewellery business that is the antithesis of her experiences in the high street jewellery industry, where she began her career.

Sarah was alarmed by the questionable ethics and lack of accountability surrounding the fast fashion industry. She began April March with the aim to be part of the change rather than the problem.

Chinese independent jewellery artist Xinyi Chen, founder of EÈ CHAN, creates fashion pieces that wander the boundary between the physical and the digital. Being sustainable is imperative to the brand. "We are living in an age of waste," says Xinyi. "I hope people could return to this Earth’s reality from the virtual, rethinking what it means to live in this rapidly changing world and reflect upon the essentials of who they are."

Maalo is a truly sustainable independent jewellery brand. Their pieces are handmade either by Montserrat Alonso herself in London or a small team of skilled artisans in Mon's hometown in Mexico.

"Jewellery is part of a person's identity," says Mon, "and the longer you wear a jewellery piece, the more history it builds."

All of Maalo's pieces are made from ethically-sourced, recycled sterling silver and gold, or fair trade gold and gemstones—fair trade being a vital pillar for Maalo. All Maalo jewellery is crafted in small batches to avoid the unnecessary waste caused by mass production.

Diana Sherling, London-based jewellery designer and goldsmith, creates pieces to empower women. The Lily Flo style consists of beautiful, dainty pieces, but without compromising the provenance of the materials.

Diana only uses recycled metals and vintage or lab-grown gemstones, ensures there is no toxic waste in their in-house production, and sources from innovative suppliers to create their recycled packaging.
