Alder Fine Jewellery takes pride in responsibly sourcing gold, and all its materials must meet exacting standards in order for it to be a Alder design.

Fine Jewellery is delicate and should be cared for accordingly. To preserve the lustre of your gold jewellery, please follow these care instructions:

• Avoid exposure to household bleach and other cleaning products, including perfume, hairspray, cosmetics and lotions.
• Remove your jewellery when engaging in activities such as, showering, bathing, or swimming in hot tubs, hot springs and the ocean, household and outdoor chores, and exercising at the gym or during contact sports.
• Before going to bed, lay your jewellery out flat on a fabric surface to avoid scratching and tangling.
• For necklaces, clasp the necklace when removing it to prevent it from tangling and forming a knot.

Between wearings, we recommend that you place your gold jewellery back in its Alder pouch for safekeeping.

To clean your diamond jewelry, use a soft bristle brush and dish soap and gently clean between the settings and in between the crevices to remove any debris.

If you're unsure about your ring size, we offer a comprehensive ring sizing guide on our website to assist you in finding the perfect fit.

We take pride at Alder FJ and only partner with reputable and established dealers for our diamond. We only work with natural diamonds, in which are sourced and compliant with the Kimberley process ensuring conflict-free origins.

At Alder FJ, we only use certified diamonds (0.51ct and above).

We are transparent and will provide you with the reputable diamond certifications (GIA) which is a highly recognised grading system for diamonds. This ensures authenticity and quality in your diamond treasures.

The 4 Cs refer to the four key factors that determine a diamond’s quality and value:

1. Cut – The cut of a diamond affects how well it reflects light, impacting its brilliance and sparkle. A well-cut diamond maximizes light return, creating that signature radiance.
2. Color – Diamonds range from colorless to shades of yellow or brown. The less color a diamond has, the rarer and more valuable it is. The GIA grading scale ranks diamond color from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow/brown).
3. Clarity – This refers to the presence of internal or external imperfections (inclusions or blemishes). The fewer imperfections, the higher the clarity grade and value. Clarity is graded from Flawless (FL) to Included (I).
4. Carat Weight – Carat refers to the weight of the diamond, with 1 carat equaling 0.2 grams. While carat weight influences size, a well-cut diamond can appear larger than one of equal weight with a poorer cut.

Each of these characteristics plays a role in determining a diamond's beauty and worth. At Alder Fine Jewellery, we carefully select diamonds that meet exceptional standards, ensuring timeless brilliance and quality in every piece.

Purchasing a certified diamond ensures you are investing in a gemstone that has been independently evaluated and graded by a reputable gemological laboratory, such as the GIA (Gemological Institute of America) or IGI (International Gemological Institute). Here’s why certification is essential:

1. Authenticity & Quality Assurance – A certified diamond comes with a detailed grading report verifying its authenticity and assessing the 4 Cs (Cut, Color, Clarity, and Carat Weight). This guarantees you are getting exactly what you pay for.
2. Transparency & Confidence – With a certification, you have a professional and unbiased assessment of the diamond’s quality, helping you make an informed and confident purchase.
3. Fair Pricing & Value – Certification helps establish a diamond’s market value, ensuring you are paying a fair price based on objective quality grading rather than subjective seller claims.
4. Resale & Insurance Benefits – Certified diamonds are easier to insure and resell, as their quality and characteristics are documented by an internationally recognized authority.

At Alder Fine Jewellery, we are committed to offering only ethically sourced, high-quality certified diamonds, so you can be assured of both the beauty and integrity of your purchase.
