Argyle Jewellers Sustainability Actions

Offers lab-grown diamonds

Argyle Jewellers sells lab-grown diamonds, which are made in a lab instead of being mined from the earth. The brand says these stones are fully certified and do not involve mining, so they can reduce some of the environmental damage linked to digging for diamonds. It presents them as an alternative for people who want a lower-impact option while still buying a diamond ring or other jewellery.

Explains ethical diamond options

The brand has a page that explains different diamond choices, including naturally sourced, lab-grown, and vintage or recycled diamonds. It says some Western Australian mines follow strict environmental and worker safety standards, work with local Indigenous communities, and try to keep diamonds traceable through the supply chain (the path a product takes from source to sale). It also says vintage diamonds can reduce the need for new mining, although Argyle Jewellers does not currently offer them.

Supports mine closure rehab

The Argyle mine in Western Australia stopped mining in November 2020, and Rio Tinto says it is now closing and rehabilitating the site. The closure plan includes removing infrastructure, reshaping the land, and revegetating the area so a self-sustaining ecosystem can return. The company also says it is working with Traditional Owner businesses and local communities during the closure process.

Uses repairs and remodelling

Argyle Jewellers offers remodelling, repairs, resizing, rhodium plating, and professional valuations. These services can help customers keep older jewellery in use instead of replacing it. The brand also says it can redesign heirloom pieces, which may reduce waste by giving existing materials a new life.

Uses certified diamonds

The brand says it sells GIA certified diamonds. GIA stands for Gemological Institute of America, a well-known diamond grading body that checks diamond quality using standard measures. The site also says some collections use certified sources and traceable Australian diamonds, which is meant to give buyers more confidence about where the stones came from.
