Flora’s singular pieces reflect an imaginative design process.
Exploring her inspiration freely, Flora variously sketches, paints in gouache, or hand carves in textural three dimensions. With her designs perfected, Flora works closely with a trusted network of expert artisans to bring them to life.
Owning a piece of Flora Bhattachary jewellery is something special. Every piece is carefully considered by Flora and crafted in small edits or as one-of-a-kind creations.
Our Stones
Each stone we use is chosen for it's unique and natural characteristics. We use a small selection of independent gem dealers who find stones from across the world. We endeavour to source stones from small independent artisanal mines where we can identify the mine conditions and the cutters. However, the nature of the jewellery industry means that we are unable to say that this applies to all our gems. We continue to strive for greater transparency from our stone suppliers. We use recycled and vintage diamonds where possible and new diamonds are Kimberley Process at a minimum. We are happy to source Canadian or Ocean diamonds. If you would like an ethical and/or certified diamond we can advise on the appropriate stone for your budget.
Ethics
All our jewels are hand crafted at our studio in Hatton Garden, London.
Flora is a Fairmined licensee and offers the use of Fairmined gold for bespoke designs. She is also a registered Fairtrade jeweller. We use recycled gold and platinum as standard but are happy to make any design in Fairtrade or Fairmined artisanal gold.
Our favourite route to sustainability is to re-imagine old jewels. Flora loves to rework unloved gems utilising the materials and giving them a new lease of life.
