sustainability & the environment

materials & practice

hammer & snail is always working toward using 100% sustainable materials and utilising environmentally friendly practices. The majority of metals used are recycled. We avoid processes which are environmentally harmful, and use natural alternatives. 

We use brass as an alternative to gold plating, which is an unsustainable option due to it being non-recyclable, the use of harsh chemicals and other environmental threats.

longevity

hammer & snail is a slow fashion brand. All jewellery is designed and handmade in Northern Ireland. 

We create jewellery that can be worn all day every day, to fit in with your lifestyle and to be cherished for years to come. All jewellery comes in packaging that stores and protects your piece(s). With wear, it is normal that precious metals will slightly tarnish over time. Head on over to our post on how to care for your jewellery to ensure your pieces live a long and happy life!

waste

In order to work toward a more sustainable and environmentally conscious world, we aim to make use of all materials without waste. All scrap material is melted down to make new pieces or recycled.

All packaging used is carefully considered to protect jewellery while also being kinder to our environment. Jewellery boxes are natural, undyed and recyclable; with cork inserts. Cork biodegrades completely and can easily be recycled without producing any toxic residues.
