Our commitment
Sustainability
Our approach
At Glasaje, every decision we make - from the gold we source to the box it arrives in - is made with the environment, our community and our craftspeople in mind.
What we stand for
Made to Order
Nothing is produced until you place your order. Zero overproduction, zero inventory waste - every piece made with intention.
Recycled Gold
Every piece uses 100% recycled 9ct solid gold, requiring up to 99% less energy than newly mined gold. Same material. A fraction of the footprint.
Lab Grown Diamonds
GIA certified lab grown diamonds - no land clearing, no habitat destruction, no conflict. Identical in every way to mined diamonds except where they come from.
Recycled Packaging
Our packaging is crafted from 100% recycled materials. Designed to minimise waste while maintaining the presentation your jewellery deserves.
Local Craftspeople
Every stage of production happens in Melbourne. We work with local jewellers, casters, stone setters and finishers - supporting skilled Australian trades.
12-Month Warranty
Every Glasaje piece is backed by a 12-month warranty. A product made to last is a product that does not need to be replaced - the most sustainable choice of all.
01
Materials
Ethically sourced recycled gold
Our gold is sourced through trusted Melbourne suppliers and recycled from existing gold - not newly mined. Recycled gold requires up to 99% less energy to produce than newly mined gold and eliminates the land clearing, toxic chemical use, water consumption and community displacement associated with traditional gold mining.
Every Glasaje piece is made from solid 9ct gold - not plated, not filled, not coated. The gold runs all the way through, which means it lasts indefinitely and can be recycled again at end of life.
The same gold. A fraction of the environmental cost.
02
Packaging
Packaging with purpose
Our packaging is crafted from 100% recycled materials, designed to minimise waste while maintaining the premium presentation your jewellery deserves. Every box, bag and insert has been chosen with the same attention to detail as the pieces inside.
Because the experience of receiving something you have been looking forward to should feel considered from start to finish - without the guilt of unnecessary waste.
100% recycled materials. Zero compromise on presentation.
03
Diamonds
Lab grown diamonds - real, responsible
Our lab grown diamonds are GIA certified with VS clarity - physically, chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds. The only difference is where they come from and what their creation required.
Lab grown diamonds eliminate the environmental damage and ethical concerns associated with traditional diamond mining - no displaced communities, no habitat destruction, no conflict. The stone on your finger is the same. The story behind it is better. Learn more about our diamonds
Physically, chemically and optically identical to mined diamonds. Just made responsibly.
04
Production
Made in Melbourne, every step
We do not outsource production. Every stage of the Glasaje manufacturing process - casting, stone setting, finishing and packing - takes place within the Greater Melbourne Metropolitan Area, carried out by skilled local craftspeople.
This is not a marketing claim. It is independently verified. In 2026, Glasaje was awarded Australian Made certification by the Australian Made Campaign Limited - formally confirming that every piece meets the strict criteria for genuine Australian production.
Not assembled here. Not finished here. Made here - every stage, every time.
Certified 2026
Certified Australian Made and Owned
The green and gold kangaroo is Australia's most trusted mark of genuine local production - independently administered by the Australian Made Campaign Limited. To carry it, a product must be substantially transformed in Australia and the majority of its production costs must occur here.
Glasaje holds this certification as formal, independent verification of what we have always done. Every piece is genuinely made in Melbourne by Australian craftspeople - from raw material through to the finished piece in your hands.

How we listen
Your feedback shapes how we work
At Glasaje we believe the people who wear our jewellery are our most important stakeholders. We gather customer feedback through post-purchase reviews, direct email communication and our 30-day returns and warranty process - each of which tells us something important about the quality and experience of every piece we make.
We also engage directly and regularly with our Melbourne craftspeople - the casters, stone setters and finishers behind every Glasaje piece - to ensure our production standards are consistently met and our working relationships remain fair, transparent and respectful.
Our written commitment
Glasaje is committed to engaging Melbourne-based and Australian craftspeople, suppliers and service providers as our first preference when sourcing production partners, materials and business services. This policy reflects our commitment to supporting the local Melbourne economy and Australian manufacturing.
Every choice we make - from the gold we source to the box it arrives in - is made with the planet, our community and our craftspeople in mind. That is not a marketing angle. It is just how we do things.
