Process

What unique offers do you have for your wholesale partners?

In this day and age we realize the impact of having an entire catalog accessible online effects the success of the collection you can carry in your store. In addition to one-of-a-kind designs available for wholesale, we also offer our retail partners the ability to customize a collection completely unique to your business needs. If you have a stone color in mind that you don't see listed in our catalog, let us know we would love to bring your vision to life. We also occasionally launch exclusive wholesale only designs to further support this mutually beneficial business model. 

What metals do you work with? What is fairmined gold?

All our jewelry is made with the most ethical and eco-friendly metals. We use Fairmined for 100% of our castings, wire and chains. For anything we can't source in Fairmined gold we rely on recycled gold. A few small speciality components like earring backs have to be conventional gold. We pride ourselves on working with Fairmined gold because it is leading industry choice when it comes to sustainable and ethical standards. I work in 14K yellow gold, 14k rose gold and 14k white gold. 18K golds available on request. 

What types of stones do you work with?

We specializing in sourcing precious gemstones from suppliers that have strict ethical requirements that go beyond "conflict-free". For diamonds we work with Lab Grown Diamonds, Certified Recycled Diamonds, Artisanal Small Scale Mine (ASM) Diamonds. We do not rely on the Kimberly Process when sourcing gemstones. Most of our collection is designed with sapphires, diamonds, or rubies. We also occasionally work with opals, and moonstones. 

Conscientious Design

Valley Rose Jewelry is made by hand in Sonoma County. Our unique design process allows us to create objects of lasting value with minimal environmental impact. All of the wax carving and design work is done by Brittany who then works with a small Sonoma County production team to cast, stone set and finish the jewelry.
