Our Commitment to Sustainability

At Nazzar, we believe in creating beautiful jewelry that not only adorns our customers but also respects our planet and its people. Here's how we're working towards a more sustainable and ethical future:

Sustainable Materials

  • We use recycled sterling silver as our base metal, reducing the need for new mining.
  • Our pieces feature 0.05 micron 16k gold plating, cubic zirconia stones, and freshwater pearls, carefully selected for their quality and ethical sourcing.

Ethical Production

Our jewelry is manufactured in Hong Kong, where we collaborate with a talented designer to bring our vision to life. We're committed to ethical production methods, including:

  • Ensuring fair wages and safe working conditions for all involved in our production process.
  • Exploring the use of computer-aided design (CAD) to minimize material waste.

Waste Reduction

We're constantly working to minimize waste in our production process:

  • Carefully planning our production to reduce leftover materials.
  • Recycling or repurposing any scraps generated during manufacturing.
  • Implementing a comprehensive waste management system for proper disposal and recycling of production byproducts.

Sustainable Packaging

Our commitment to sustainability extends to our packaging:

  • We use reusable microfiber cloths and pouches for our jewelry.
  • Our boxes and earring cards are made of paper, a renewable resource.
  • For delicate pieces, we occasionally use sponges to ensure protection.
  • All our packing materials are designed to be reused, reducing waste.

Community Engagement

We believe in giving back to our community:

  • We have previously supported mental health associations in Canada.
  • We're always seeking new partnerships with charities that align with our values.

Employee Well-being

Our team is at the heart of what we do:

  • We offer flexible working arrangements, allowing our employees to work when and where they feel most productive.
  • We prioritize job satisfaction, ensuring that everyone enjoys their role in our jewelry business.
