Fair Trade Gold
Caring for miners and the environment“Fairtrade’s vision is a world in which all small-scale miners can enjoy secure and sustainable livelihoods. By supporting miners to work more responsibly, achieve a fair price for their gold and sell to international markets”.
What is FairTrade Gold?
Fairtrade Certified Gold is the world’s first independent ethical certification system for gold.
Buying Fairtrade Gold jewellery means you are supporting small-scale miners to receive a fair price for their hard work, as well as protecting the environment and making life better for themselves and their communities.
All gold is sourced from mine sites who meet the Fairtrade Gold Standard; a globally recognised marker of best practice.
Buying Fairtrade Gold means miners can invest in projects to improve their communities such as a better water supply, providing schools with computers and internet access and buying equipment for local health clinic.
As a member of FairTrade Goldsmiths scheme Saunders & Pughe are delighted to offer our customers a FairTrade Gold option for wedding rings and Bespoke jewellery. To view our selection of FairTrade gold please contact us to arrange an appointment.
