Artist Statement
All these revolutionary ideas and technicolor fairytales propelled me here to this exact moment in history to share a little more joy in the world. I think Ventura feels like Corydon, Indiana + Pacific Ocean. If you should ever find yourself there you’ll say, “Ahhh, yes this is familiar.” I think it’s true of most people and places. There is this bold connection that we all hold to each other that far outweighs all of our differences. I’ll always carry this gratitude for wandering through life and I hope that my travels will spark a bit of your own curiosity for living. The road has always risen to meet me in this grand gesture. I have learned to find a home within myself. I think the world is full of brilliant illuminating details, and I want to taste them all. I hope you’ll join me in a sun soaked glittery ride of a lifetime. Welcome Home this is Family Room.
Transparency
As we grow and expand our capabilities so will our access to information and resources. It’s foundational to the business that we practice ethical and sustainable sourcing, shipping, and jewelry making process. As we consistently navigate this largely unregulated industry, it is our goal to simultaneously educate and restructure the business to continually better align with our ethics.
Business Ethics
Business Ethics is a vague term and in this context it is ‘as conflict free as possible’. We use recycled, lab grown (sourced from our certified Diamond supply partners) or repurposed stones and in all cases use recycled metals. ‘Ethics’ is also at play when we price our product. It is not our intention to participate in the ‘status’ culture of jewelry, rather create heirloom pieces that make the wearer feel sexy and adorned for a lifetime.
Sustainable Practices
‘Sustainability’ is also a vague term. In this context Mustard is intentional about prioritizing the planet. In addition to using durable materials, we’ve also adopted low or zero waste processes. We mindfully procure our metals from local refiners and recyclers of precious metal in whom are also committed to re-investing in green technology and methods. We will continue to provide updated information on sustainability practices as the brand grows.
We are here to create products of art to wear and make memories with – None of jewelry is intended for the landfill. For that reason we do not plate or vermeil products. We do instead offer a range of gold types in a range of prices.
