Ethos

FAITH

Let it not be elusive, as to the fact this brand is dedicated to glorifying God through excellent work. When we say that, it can make many uncomfortable but we are completely unapologetic in this mind. With this as one of our main driving forces, we are obligated to produce work worthy of that mind. This results in our small team of two designers, pushing ourselves to the limit in order to extract every bit of excellence from an idea, consequently, to formulate it into an excellent work. This pursuit of excellence can express itself in many ways in our work, from the countless hours of research, to the depth of thought regarding tiny details and aspects. With this in mind, it only stands to reason that what we make now, will only develop into something more conformed to, ''Glorify God through excellent work''. Where both aspects are met, in producing excellent work and more importantly, in glorifying our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. 

FORM

We attempt to use the most suitable materials to best fit the conceptualized work, with priority given to, ''high quality''. This is why you will find a re-occurring theme, the use of sterling silver in many of our garments as embellishments. In contrast to many brands, we have opted to use a precious metal not only for the luxurious element, but also for its unique properties. Such as being a hypoallergenic metal, as well as possessing anti-microbial properties. Another great reason is that sterling silver will be able to survive the test of time, this means having it as an embellishment, will result in it being able to last on the garment, sometimes even when the garment itself has retired. Sterling silver does tarnish, but applying the relevant cleaning procedure will restore its lustre, resulting in embellishments that age well, especially paired with leather which similarly ages well. As a result one of our focuses is on leather goods, which we enhance with sterling silver embellishments. We generally prefer to use organic/natural materials, such as ELS cottons and full grain leathers, but in the cases where this isn't possible we will use the next best alternatives. Wherever possible we try to incorporate recycled materials, as long as they fit our high quality standards.

BESPOKE

The vast majority of work we produce will be on a bespoke (made to order) basis, this ensures not only higher quality work but also a sustainable method of operation. It ensures higher quality work in the sense that what is made, is usually made entirely by hand, by an incredibly skilled artisan which usually has decades of experience. Using bespoke also ensures efficient operations although at the cost of slower production times, which we think is outweighed by the benefits to all parties involved. It also allows customers to have slightly more control, in the sense that they are able to make requests which may or may not be possible, regarding changing a specific aspect of design, generally limited to sizing. It also results in us naturally having the operational capabilities to fulfil bespoke project requests at our discretion. 

SUSTAINABILITY

The bespoke approach contributes to sustainable practices because it counter acts over production which usually results in massive waste. This waste in turn negatively effects environments, which results in our health and animal health also suffering as collateral. Our use of high quality materials like sterling silver, which is not only recyclable but also eco friendly, at no quality sacrifice, results in a major contribution to sustainable practices. Due to it's long lasting nature, it does not require replacement unlike commonly used alternatives, therefore contributes to less mining related impact. We also utilise recycled sterling silver wherever possible to further increase our contribution to sustainable practices, which can even result in reducing mining waste by up to ninety-seven percent. The vast majority of our animal related products are a natural by product of the meat industry, which prevents wastage and contributes somewhat to sustainable practices. Also animal leather outlasts synthetic alternatives (generally made from plastic) which results in reducing consumer waste and being generally more sustainable. 

EXCLUSIVITY

Due to the uniquity and complexity of producing our work, we do set limits on how many pieces we allow to be made. This also allows us to produce even more unique work which you can be sure will never go on sale in any of our stores. Not only will you have a unique and limited piece, but you can be at peace knowing you won't be seeing your purchase on sale in a few months. We also recommend utilising the VIP loyalty programme which has VIP specific limited edition annual gifts for platinum members. All our work (with a few exceptions), will be limited in nature with a strict focus on excellence and high quality.
