Why Fairmined?
“Fairmined identifies mining operations that use their trade to nourish their communities and pave the way in responsible practise. It recognises the viability and hard graft of artisanal and small-scale miners worldwide and works to ensure that they are afforded the respect, recognition, protection and investment that they deserve, both in work and in life. As a jewellery brand who strongly advocates jewellery as an active force for good, we’re proud champions of Fairmined Gold.
The Fairmined 100 challenge is a chance to celebrate Fairmined’s important work, educating consumers and fellow industry members alike whilst doing so. We love jewellery that tells beautiful stories, and our new Fancy Athena Collection – embraced as one of the Fairmined 100 – does just that.”

About the collection:
FANCY ATHENA BLUE PEAR CUT SAPPHIRE SOLITAIRE ENGAGEMENT RING, 18CT ETHICAL GOLD, READY TO GO
The crown jewel is a 0.79ct pear-cut blue sapphire of fair-traded Sri Lankan origin. Traceable stone is conflict-free, extracted from the ground via fair and safe labor practices, in a mine where preservation of the natural environment is prioritized.
Created by jewellers right here in the UK. From the florid scroll motif lovingly hand-engraved by Darren to the elevated three-claw setting created by our stone-setter Michael, it’s a celebration of traditional British craftsmanship.
FANCY ATHENA GREEN EMERALD CUT SAPPHIRE SOLITAIRE ENGAGEMENT RING, 18CT ETHICAL GOLD
Set atop the gleaming hand-engraved band is a 1.3ct emerald-cut sapphire of traceable Australian origin, with zero ties to conflict or exploitation of any kind.
The band’s ornate scrolls were hand-engraved by our master craftsman, Darren, and his team.
FANCY ATHENA CHAMPAGNE OVAL CUT SAPPHIRE SOLITAIRE ENGAGEMENT RING, 18CT ETHICAL GOLD
Sapphire is of fair-traded and traceable Sri Lankan origin, mined on a small scale and expertly cut and polished by a lapidary local to its mine of origin.
Cast and finished locally by expert UK jewellers, this special engagement ring is a salute to traditional British craftsmanship.
With a delivery time of just three working days, the sound of popping corks may just be closer than you think. Though it’s cast provisionally in a UK Size L, we’re happy to resize it once for free any time within the next year.
