Sustainability

Avina’s Commitment to Sustainability & Ethical Craftsmanship

Because beauty should never come at the planet’s cost.

At Avina Fashion Jewellery, we are redefining how jewellery is made not just through elegant design, but through conscious, ethical, and environmentally responsible practices. Our goal is to craft timeless jewellery that supports people, protects the planet, and empowers communities.

Our Mission

We align our sustainability efforts with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and are committed to driving meaningful change across the jewellery industry  starting right here in India.

Transparency & Traceability

From raw materials to the finished piece, Avina ensures full traceability in our sourcing and production. We call it our Stone-to-Story journey  where every gem, metal, and artisan’s hand can be traced to an ethical origin.

Ethical Sourcing – What We Use & Why

1. Gemstones

We source only natural, conflict-free gemstones through ethical suppliers. Every gem is verified for origin and integrity to ensure fair trade and safety standards.

2. Cultured Pearls

Avina uses ethically farmed pearls, which are organic and responsibly cultivated. Each pearl we select is sourced from farms committed to sustainable aquatic practices.

3. Diamonds

All our diamonds comply with the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme, ensuring they are conflict-free and ethically mined. We work only with verified, transparent diamond traders.

4. Lab-Grown Diamonds (Optional for Clients)

For clients seeking eco-conscious luxury, we offer lab-grown diamond alternatives  chemically identical to mined diamonds but created with significantly less environmental impact.

5. Recycled Metals (Gold & Silver)

We proudly use recycled 925 sterling silver and gold from certified suppliers. Our recycled metals are refined to high purity and used to create stunning new designs  reducing the need for new mining.

🌿 We also invite clients to send in their old silver jewellery for recycling  we’ll repurpose it into fresh designs and offer store credit in return.
