Sustainability
Our materials
We have been using recycled metals since the very beginning of our brand, always producing small batches of jewellery to avoid over-production.
We use either 21ct gold-plated recycled brass or 18ct gold-plated recycled sterling silver, without compromising on the beauty and quality of our pieces.
Our hands
Our name, Ottoman Hands, was inspired by the artisans that create our unique jewellery.
To this day, we are working with the same workshop in the heart of Istanbul, that produces the majority of our hand-crafted jewellery. We will only ever work with manufacturers who share our values and treat their workers fairly.
Our packaging
Our mailing boxes and our jewellery boxes are created with FSC-certified paper from 70% recycled sources and our pouches are made from 100% cotton. With no foam or velour inserts, our packaging is not just beautiful to gift and reuse, but also plastic-free, 100% recyclable and biodegradable.
In order to reduce packaging waste, we may sometimes use one jewellery box for two small pouches. If you have purchased the gift wrap option with your order, each piece will come in an individual jewellery box, as well as a gift bag.
