WHAT ARE KESHI PEARLS?
Keshi pearls are a type of non-nucleated pearl. They are formed as a byproduct of the culturing process used to produce traditional pearls, such as Akoya, South Sea, or Tahitian pearls. Keshi pearls are typically small and irregularly shaped, with unique and lustrous surfaces.
Size and Shape: Keshi pearls come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, but they are generally small, often smaller than other cultured pearls. Their shapes can be irregular, baroque, or even freeform, making them highly unique.
Luster: Keshi pearls are renowned for their exceptional luster and often exhibit a beautiful play of colors, making them highly desirable in the world of pearl jewelry.
Color: Keshi pearls can come in various natural colors, including white, cream, pink, gold, and gray. The color is often influenced by the type of oyster used in the culturing process and the environment.
Value: Keshi pearls are valued for their uniqueness, luster, and individuality. They are often considered collector's items.
WHAT IS FAIRMINED GOLD?
Fairmined gold is a certification standard for gold that has been mined and produced in a socially and environmentally responsible manner. It was created by the Alliance for Responsible Mining (ARM) in 2014 to provide a way for artisanal and small-scale miners to sell their gold on the international market at a fair price.
The Fairmined certification requires that miners follow strict environmental and social standards, including using safe and responsible mining practices, providing fair working conditions, protecting the rights of women and indigenous people, and investing in community development projects.
By purchasing Fairmined gold, consumers can support responsible mining practices and help improve the lives of small-scale miners and their communities. The certification also promotes transparency and traceability in the gold supply chain, ensuring that the gold can be traced back to its source and that its production has not contributed to environmental degradation or human rights abuses.
