Aurea was built on a simple idea – beauty shouldn't cost the earth, or a clear conscience. We grow our stones, certify every one, and craft each piece only once you've selected it.
What follows isn't a set of marketing fluff – it's how we operate as a company. Where our gemstones and diamonds come from, how our pieces are designed and made, are all a part of how we work, without compromise.
Grown, not mined.
Every stone in the range starts in a chamber, not in the ground. It grows atom by atom under the same pressure and heat a mined stone forms under — nothing dug up, nothing displaced, and no question about where it came from, because we watched it happen.
A stone we grew is a stone we can vouch for, start to finish.
Why grown, not mined
Made once you've selected it
None of our jewellery, gemstones, or diamonds are sitting in a dusty drawer in the back of a warehouse. We start making your piece the day you order it – grown, polished, and set over a period of about 20 days. What you get was made especially for you.
How your piece gets made
Nothing about the origin of our diamonds or gemstones is hidden.
Every stone is graded and certified by IGI – the same standards and certification that a mined stone has. It travels with the stone, not with us, so it still holds up long after you've bought it.

Everything above holds for every piece on the site — there's no special case, and nothing here that isn't true of the plainest style in the range too.
