A look into the workshop and beyond

HOW EDEN JEWELLERY IS MADE

At Eden, every piece of jewellery tells a story — a story of restoration, dignity and hope.

01
The women behind the jewellery

Made with dignity. Made with hope.

Each piece is handcrafted by women who have experienced human trafficking and sexual exploitation. Through safe, trauma-informed employment in our jewellery workshops, these women are given the opportunity to rebuild their lives, develop new skills and create brighter futures for themselves and their families.

But our commitment to care extends beyond the women who make our jewellery. We also consider the materials we use, the way our jewellery is produced and the impact our work has on people and the planet.

02 What we use

HIGH-QUALITY, SAFE MATERIALS

Most of our jewellery is crafted using 316L stainless steel, chosen for its strength, durability and suitability for everyday wear.

03 How we finish our pieces

LONG-LASTING, MORE RESPONSIBLE PLATING

18K gold plating using PVD technology
Physical Vapour Deposition

BEAUTIFUL. DURABLE. MADE TO LAST.

Our pieces are plated with 18K yellow, rose or white gold using a process called Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD), also known as vacuum plating.

Compared with traditional electroplating, PVD creates a strong, durable bond between the metal and coating.

Why PVD?

A MORE RESPONSIBLE WAY TO PLATE

01

STRONGER BOND

Creates a strong, durable bond between the metal and coating.

02

LONGER LASTING

Helps extend the life of your jewellery and maintain its finish.

03

LESS CHEMICAL WASTE

Uses a more efficient process with less chemical waste.

The result

The result is jewellery designed to be beautiful, durable and made to last.
