ABOUT POLAR JEWELRY

 

A love for experimentation is in the DNA of Polar Jewelry. The two founders themselves have combined their untraditional creative backgrounds to create a unique hybrid aesthetic for their jewelry.

MATERIALS

 

All of our pieces are made by hand with the finest recycled 925 sterling silver, with recycled 22K gold or rhodium plating. They are then accented with natural freshwater pearls and red bamboo corals.
          
All our pieces are made with recycled gold and silver to ensure less waste and a better future for our planet. 
We go to great lengths to source high-quality materials and colour palettes to reflect the ambition of the collections. One of our most important initiatives is ethical sourcing, which ensures that our materials are sustainable.
 

Why bamboo corals?

For thousands of years, red and pink corals has been used for jewelry. It is a beautiful material but it is also a living organism. As it stands, this living organism is harvested indiscriminately across the world and now faces extinction. This would be an ecological disaster because they provide food and shelter to over 25% of the planet's marine life. Corals are the "rainforests of the sea". The current practice of harvesting corals is unregulated, and if this practice continues, the corals will become extinct.

Luckily, bamboo coral is a beautiful alternative to red and pink coral. Its name is derived from its bamboo-like appearance and is a type of coral that grows very quickly in shallow sea. It still offers organic palettes like other corals but is also sustainable. Red bamboo coral are stabilized or dyed to achieve its colour.
