MY PHILOSOPHY
for our planet
For over 30 years, I have been following my own path as a master goldsmith – consciously, consistently, and sustainably.
I create unique, handcrafted pieces from recycled gold, Fairtrade precious metals, and responsibly sourced gemstones.
Each piece of jewelry tells your personal story, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern sustainability – and thus becomes a lasting expression of your love.
In my magazine, "NACHHALTIGES HAeNDeWERK," I provide insights into my values and working methods. It was printed in a limited edition on 100% recycled paper, using environmentally friendly methods.
Simply Love,
Michaela
YOUR VALUES
giving your existing gold new form and meaning
I create new jewelry from your existing gold—the most sustainable form of raw material extraction.
Your old jewelry will be melted down and forged into a new, unique piece. This way, you preserve its emotional value for generations – in a new form and with new meaning.
RECYCLING GOLD
. . . from the secondary circuit
My partner C. HAFNER is the first refinery with a CO₂-neutral recycling process.
Recycled gold from the secondary cycle has a CO₂ footprint up to 2,000 times smaller than gold from mines.
C. HAFNER relies exclusively on secondary gold and fully compensates for unavoidable emissions.
FAIRMINED GOLD
. . . from responsible small-scale mining
With Fairmined Gold, I support responsible small-scale mining and promote the positive development of mining communities.
The Fairmined seal stands for fair prices, environmental protection, and a conflict-free supply chain – for gold you can be proud of.
DIAMONDDS
Responsible, ethical, social and environmentally friendly
I only process fair trade diamonds from responsible small-scale mining.
My partner is certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) and meets the highest ethical, social, and environmental standards.
The RJC Code of Practice, which is reviewed annually, guarantees transparency, environmental sustainability and the protection of human rights.
FAIR TRADED GEMSTONES
Resource-saving mining and ethically fair processing
With CEYLONS | MUNICH, I work with a partner who is committed to resource-efficient mining and fair processing of gemstones from Sri Lanka.
Their transparent approach demonstrates how true sustainability and social responsibility are practiced in the gemstone trade.
Together we share the same values – appreciation, fairness, and the respectful handling of rare colored gemstones.
