Fashion Revolution Week #IMADEYOURJEWELLERY

“Fashion Revolution Week is the time when we come together as a global community to create a better fashion industry” - Fashion Revolution

Fashion Revolution Week is a yearly campaign that falls on the anniversary of the devastating Rana Plaza Factory collapse in Bangladesh, which killed 1,138 people on the 24th of April 2013.

Each year, brands and producers are encouraged to respond to the campaign by using the hashtags #imadeyouclothes & #imadeyourjewelry to promote and demonstrate transparency within their supply chain. 

At KIND Collection, we support this campaign and the push for transparency 100%!

We strongly believe that as a consumer, you have the right to know the story behind your products, and under what conditions they were produced. As a brand, we feel it is our ethical obligation to share this information.

So this week, we ask that you make a conscious effort to look into some of your favourite brands – to see where their products are made, by who and under what conditions. Most of the time, if they’re doing things right by the community, they will have this information easily accessible on their website but a great place to start on your quest for the truth is the app Goodonyou which shares information on all the major brands, what they are doing well and what they need to work on!

Who makes the jewellery at KIND Collection? 

#IMADEYOURJEWELLERY

‘KIND Collection is handmade in the UK using responsibly sourced materials and is 100% sweatshop free.’

Each piece is hand carved or formed by KIND’s Founder, Tansy Haak and sent to be cast in certified 100% Recycled or Fairmined Precious metal by our fantastic casting house in Leicestershire, UK. The raw forms are then returned to our London studio for finishing. We are proud to source specialist skills like stone setting and engraving from London’s Hatton Garden and each piece is hallmarked by the London Assay Office. We aim to make quality pieces of fine jewellery that are made to last and we offer a free repair service for damaged items, to support slow fashion.

How does KIND Collection promote sustainability?

We are incredibly passionate about creating and making beautiful pieces of jewellery but not at the cost of our planet or the people we share it with. We only use responsibly sourced materials, including 100% recycled, Fairmined© & Fairtrade precious metals and fully traceable Gemstones to produce our COLLECTIONS and BESPOKE ranges.

As a brand, we aim for zero waste, which means we reclaim, recycle & re-purpose wherever possible. Our VINTAGE COLLECTION promotes sustainable shopping by giving old jewellery a new lease of life, whilst our RECYCLE + REWORK collection encourages our customers to re-purpose all those unworn and forgotten pieces hiding away at the bottom of their jewellery boxes.

We produce small quantities of each collection to avoid wasting unnecessary energy and make to order where possible, what’s more, any discontinued lines are melted down and made into new collections, which means NO Dead Stock!

On top of this, each piece of KIND Jewellery we make goes to repairing the worlds natural climate solutions as we have pledged to plant a tree for every order in partnership with One Tree Planted. To learn more about the efforts that One Tree Planted aims to achieve, read our recent blog here

We love the planet, we love our suppliers, and of course – we love our customers! Take care, stay safe, and shop sustainably.

With love,

KIND Collection
