PRODUCT
ETHICAL SUPPLY CHAIN
All our suppliers are verified by accrediting bodies designed to audit their ways of working and we opt for materials that come with documentation to show their origin.
All our metal suppliers are certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council and we source our gold from suppliers licenced to supply Fairtrade precious metals with chain of custody certification.
Our coloured gemstone suppliers are members of the International Coloured Gemstone Association, with our primary supplier being an Accredited Ethical Member.
All our diamond suppliers work within the parameters of the Kimberly Process and World Diamond Council System of Warranties, and we are also transitioning to using exclusively GIA certified diamonds and lab grown diamonds in our bespoke commissions to verify their provenance.
We have started to source Aquamarines from Zimbaqua, the world’s first sustainable mine empowering women in rural communities through mining.
PACKAGING
All our jewellery comes in plastic free packaging and our bags and boxes are made using recyclable, responsibly sourced paper from well managed forests. Our jewellery pouches are crafted from a strong suedette material and are designed to be reused for jewellery storage.
ECO PACKAGING
We promote an eco-packaging option in store and online to reduce the volume of packaging we use. In 2022, this resulted in a saving of 1.49 tonnes of packaging.
THE GIVE BACK & GROW INITIATIVE
We now offer the Give Back and Grow Packaging Initiative. Bring back your used packaging, and we’ll plant a tree on your behalf.

PEOPLE
COMMUNITY
Our team take part in annual volunteering days as part of our commitment to support our local community by participating in local beach cleans. We also support a range of local charities with each of our stores fundraising for their chosen cause throughout the year.
CUSTOMERS
As a family run business, people are at the heart of everything we do - our customers and team are an integral part of the DD family. All our pieces are lovingly designed and made with our customers in mind. We welcome feedback from our customers and are regularly inspired by them.
CHARITY
Giving back is part of our mission to create an ethical jewellery brand that not only cares, but also makes a positive impact. Our people and sustainability teams work with the wider business to select our charity partners each year, focusing on key areas that align with our values.
