Katrina Alexander

Contemporary Designer Jewellery

Each piece of jewellery is made in small batches and limited editions in the UK. Katrina's process involves sculpting each design by hand carving and using the ancient art of lost wax casting. All silver used in the casting process is cast from 100% recycled sterling silver and we also use eco silver.

Our jewellery is hallmarked by the London Assay Office.

We are delighted to now be able to offer some of our collections coated in 18ct or 24 ct Gold Plating which is 3 or 5 microns in thickness. Our gold vermeil is of a much higher standard than a lot of gold plating which is often plated onto brass and not very long lasting.

We recycle all of our silver that cannot be used in the making process (tiny offcuts etc). The collections have been designed to be made in small batches or to order, and are handcrafted, without the use of extensive chemicals where possible.

The nature of jewellery historically has been about adornment, meaning and heritage, and

Katrina Alexander pieces are designed for longevity, with meaning.

All packaging, including acid free tissue paper, is of a high quality,

made from recycled goods, is plastic-free (including stickers) and is recyclable.

It comes from a reputable UK company for whom

sustainability is one of their core values.

We are now moving from using recycled ribbons

to natural raffia for our gift wrapping - this is made from recycled materials and the recycled content varies from 40-99% subject to batches - it can be recycled depending on your council.

In the interests of sustainability we will be using up our existing ribbons first.

All orders from the website are confirmed digitally, eliminating the need for Delivery Notes and Return Sheets.

We have been using renewable energy since 2010, and use ecosia.com as our search engine,

ensuring that trees are planted with our search engine use.

We are currently working even harder to ensure that we are as sustainable and transparent as we can possibly be at this time and will update the website on further updates as we work towards becoming even more sustainable.

Please note that we have had to increase some of our prices, in line with sustainable supplier price increases, but rest assured we spend a lot of time researching sustainable suppliers.
