Material and Maintenance

Corali jewelry is handmade in our local workshop in the heart of Copenhagen using high-quality recycled metals, ensuring lasting durability and a timeless feel. Each piece is designed for everyday wear, and with proper care, your jewelry will retain its beauty for years to come.

Gold
 All our gold pieces are handmade from 100% repurposed 14 karat gold, which already exists in the world, making it a sustainable choice. We use high-quality gold that offers the same look, durability and quality as raw mined gold. By repurposing gold instead of using raw mined gold, we help reduce the environmental impact of gold extraction. At Corali, we handmade all our gold pieces using solid gold exclusively, never resorting to gold-plated metals

Silver
We use recycled silver from Nordic Urban Mining, a sustainable and circular alternative to traditional mining. Instead of extracting new resources from the earth, Nordic Urban Mining recovers discarded precious metals from Denmark, giving silver a new life in an environmentally responsible way. 

Through an advanced sorting process, silver is extracted from the ash residue produced by the incineration of household and industrial waste in Denmark. These precious metals would otherwise be lost, but are now recovered and refined to the highest level of purity. This process also results in a significantly lower CO₂ footprint, making it a better choice for the environment and for those seeking a more conscious alternative to newly mined silver. We are also able to trace the origin of the refined recycled silver here in Denmark, ensuring full transparency throughout the process.

Silver and gold are among the few natural resources that can be infinitely recycled, as the recycling process does not degrade the metals. The quality of Nordic Urban Mining's silver is thoroughly documented and meets the same high standards as newly extracted precious metals.

Diamonds
We only use Top Wesselton VVS diamonds in our gold jewelry, ensuring exceptional quality. Our diamonds comply with the World Federation Code of Principles (WFCOP) and are certified conflict-free under the Kimberley Process resolution. Additionally, every diamond we use is approved by the World Federation of Diamond Bourses, guaranteeing both ethical sourcing and the highest standards of quality.

Pearls and stones
we work with cultured aa Akoya peals sourced from Japan, known for their luster and high quality. Additionally one of our silver pieces features larger freshwater pearls curated from chinese rivers. All of our pearls are high-quality, ensuring exceptional beauty and shine in every pearl. In many of our pieces, we use natural stones such as Onyx, Carnelian, Aventurine, Agate, Jade, Lapis Lazuli and Quartz. Each stone is carefully selected for its unique color, texture, and energy, making every piece truly one-of-a-kind.

longevity
To ensure the longevity and beauty of your Corali jewelry, we recommend the following care instructions:

Avoid activities that could scratch or damage your jewelry. We recommend removing your jewelry before sleeping, working out, showering, cleaning, swimming or sunbathing.

When getting ready put your jewelry on last to avoid contact with makeup, perfume, hairspray and lotions. Pearls and stones are sensitive to chemicals, so handle them with care.

Keep your jewelry in the provided cotton bag and box to help prevent tarnishing. We also recommend storing pieces separately to avoid scratching.

Polish regularly with the Corali microfiber cloth to remove dirt and tarnish.

We recommend having diamond settings checked once a year.

We offer complimentary cleaning and maintenance services at our office and workshop.
