Materials Guide
What We Work With
At designerdesigner, we carefully select every material to ensure durability, beauty, and sustainability in our handmade accessories.
Sterling Silver
We use 925 sterling silver for our metal components, ensuring longevity and a beautiful finish that develops character over time. Our silver is sourced from suppliers who meet our ethical sourcing standards.
Freshwater Pearls
Our pearls are hand-selected for their luster and unique characteristics. Each pearl is genuinely formed, making every piece one-of-a-kind with natural variations.
Natural Stones
From turquoise to rose quartz, our natural stones are ethically sourced and hand-polished. We celebrate the natural inclusions and color variations that make each stone special.
Sustainable Leather
Our leather comes from sustainable sources using vegetable tanning processes. It ages beautifully and develops a rich patina with wear.
Organic Threads
For our woven pieces, we use organic cotton and linen threads dyed with natural, non-toxic dyes. These create soft, durable accessories with beautiful color depth.
Bronze Accents
Our bronze components are cast and finished by hand, providing warm metallic accents that complement our teal and blush color palette beautifully.
Our Eco Promise

We partner only with suppliers who meet our strict ethical and environmental standards.
Low Waste
Our production process is designed to minimize waste, with offcuts repurposed into smaller pieces.
Carbon Conscious
We offset our shipping carbon footprint and prioritize local suppliers whenever possible.
Caring for Your Pieces
Proper care ensures your handmade accessories from designerdesigner remain beautiful for years to come.
Store silver pieces in a dry place, preferably in the pouch provided. Polish gently with a soft cloth to remove tarnish. Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, and chlorine.
Pearls are delicate and should be stored separately from other jewelry to prevent scratching. Wipe them gently with a soft, damp cloth after wearing.
While our leather is treated for durability, prolonged exposure to water should be avoided. If wet, let it dry naturally away from direct heat. Condition periodically with natural leather balm.
Spot clean woven pieces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking. Allow to air dry completely before wearing again.

Every piece that leaves our workshop undergoes thorough quality inspection. We check clasps, connections, finish quality, and overall durability before packaging.
