FAIR We source and manufacture our collections in ethical way and offer our designs at an affordable price point. We work very closely with our suppliers to ensure that all people involved in making our pieces are treated and paid fairly. We personally audit our suppliers on a bi-annual basis to ensure their production is aligned with our values. Our suppliers are sourcing the gemstones on our behalf ensuring that their suppliers are adhering to our principles. We hand-select all our gemstones and oversee the production process in person. We strongly believe - what goes around comes around - it is one of our guiding principles. This also applies to our customers.
REAL We only work with the finest genuine materials. We only use precious metals, gold and sterling silver for our contemporary design jewellery. We never compromise on quality and therefore do not use inferior metals like brass or nickel. Our gold plating is vermeil, an industry standard to ensure highest quality plating. We apply 18ct gold on solid sterling silver with a minimum thickness of 3 microns. We never use flash plating, which is a thin layer of gold usually less than 1 micron. Our gemstones are all natural and we do not substitute with synthetic stones. All our jewellery is handmade by highly skilled artisans. Our gemstones are hand-cut in a customised multifaceted way, which intensifies the brilliance of the stones and reflects maximum light. We like textured surfaces, which our craftsmen achieve by applying hammering or brushing techniques.
ORIGINAL Andrea, the founder of Neola has a curious mind and takes inspiration from variety of influences, resulting in an eclectic mix and unusual designs. Neola is inspired by lifelong passion for travelling, translating varied cultural influences into acontemporary context. Vibrant and colourful gemstones are core to the design process, contrasting the subtle elegance of the design shapes and forms. The rich tapestry of art, architecture, design, and nature are another reference point in her work. Andrea grew up in Vienna and has been living in London for the past 15 years. Both cities have a strong multicultural heritage. Andrea is heavily influenced by Art Nouveau and Wiener Sezession, which embraces all forms of art and design. The brand is always evolving and experimenting with different shapes, custom gem stones, and different patterns. We do not follow trends blindly - we might take inspiration from certain themes, but we rather set trends or choose to ignore them entirely. Neola has its own voice.
