Yes! Each piece is carefully inserted in a box or a pouch and then placed in a gift box.

One of our guiding principles is creating high end jewelry that doesn’t harm the Earth. Every ounce of your jewelry is sourced as sustainably as possible, using local materials wherever possible, and every stage of the crafting process is done by small businesses and artisans within a block of A Gilded Leaf’s New York City headquarters.

We can trace every part of your final piece back to its source and we know exactly whose hands have turned your jewelry from design into reality. We only create pieces that are approved by you every step of the way, ensuring that materials aren’t wasted. 

Our footprint is incredibly small and we work hard to make it even smaller at every opportunity. Our focus is on minimizing waste and supporting truly local small businesses means that we’re doing our part to make your jewelry as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible.

Lab-grown diamonds are touted as the solution to the environmental and social costs of mining, by eliminating the carbon footprint of mining machinery and helping to stop problematic labor issues in the mining process. But creating a diamond in a lab takes a huge amount of energy and takes money out of the hands of those who need it the most.

There’s no denying that there are big issues in the diamond mining industry, but taking money away from local miners and giving it to big businesses doesn’t solve the problem. Miners are left with no means to support their families, while big diamond corporations swim in even more unnecessary profits.

When we create your custom jewelry, we don’t use lab-created diamonds. Instead, we support a local jeweler who travels across the world to source diamonds in the most sustainable way possible. It’s not a perfect process, but we’re able to trace every diamond we use back to its origin and support a local one-man band in the process.
