Urban Mining
What is Urban Mining of Gemstones?
Urban mining of gemstones involves extraction of gemstones from pre-loved jewellery settings, which are then sent for re-polishing or re-cutting. This sustainable practice breathes new life into pre-loved gems, reducing waste and preserving their value while minimizing environmental impact.
Why Urban Mining?
Through urban mining, we not only reduce the environmental impacts associated with new gemstone mining, we are also able to give the gemstones a modern touch through our precision cutting process.
Precision Cutting
We entrust our gemstones to our handpicked cutting partners, who are renowned for their precision and expertise. Unlike traditional cutting methods that prioritize retaining weight, our approach focuses on maximizing the visual appeal of each gemstone. Through meticulous cutting, we enhance the natural beauty of every piece, ensuring that our gemstones not only meet but exceed the highest standards of brilliance and craftsmanship.
Competitive Pricing
Through urban mining, we completely eliminate the significant costs associated with traditional gemstone mining, including expenses for labor, heavy machinery, land acquisition, and environmental restoration. By bypassing these resource-intensive processes, we can offer reclaimed gemstones at more competitive prices, making them an eco-friendly and cost-effective choice.
