This brand has a workshop located in Paris, where all the collections are brought to life by Judith and her team. This ensures ethical production of the jewellery. We, however, are unaware of the material sourcing facilities and their ethical nature.
The brand uses gold-plated brass, which is recyclable, however the process of extracting these products could be harmful to the environment. The products are then given some colour using an epoxy, which has the potential to be eco-friendly, but this information is not provided. The packaging is also sustainable, using recycled cardboard boxes, but they do not give us information regarding the chemicals used in the making of the jewellery.
Jewellery is inherently very circular, as most of it is made of easily recyclable materials. Judith also uses many scraps, upcycled and recycled materials in her pieces, contributing to their circularity. The brand’s repair services also reflect their efforts to be circular and keep the products in use for a long time.
The brand is located in Paris, and manufacturing is also conducted in the same location, reducing the length of the chain. Aside from this, we do not have any information regarding the sourcing of the materials, making the true length of the supply chain unknown. We are also unaware of the transportation methods used in the supply chain.
The brand uses freshwater pearl and mother-of-pearl, the source of which isn’t specified.
Judith Benita creates beautiful handmade jewellery, unique to each wearer. They deliberately work with a reduced stock to avoid overproduction, and they provide care tips and re-gilding and repair services to keep the jewellery in use for as long as possible. The designs are timeless and high quality, and they come with a 1‑year guarantee as well.
Judith Benita, being a small brand, provides a lot of transparency regarding their materials and efforts at sustainability. We would love to see them go a few steps further and provide details regarding their material sourcing, transportation, and chemicals.
