    Sustainability & Ethical Responsibility

    At earbij, we believe luxury does not lie in the price, it lies in the precious chance that our body connects with the earth and the warmth of artists’ careful handcrafts.

    Our Production

    80% of our earbij pieces are handcrafted in small-scale workshops.
    This approach ensures meticulous attention to detail and quality, while keeping production transparent and avoiding the waste that often comes with mass industrialization.
    We are committed to safeguarding the dignity and working environment of our artisans—because true beauty begins at the source, with warmth and responsibility.

    Materials

    925 Sterling Silver – Our primary material, chosen for its recyclability, extending the life of precious metal.
    Natural Gemstones – Each stone is selected for its unique textures and natural colors, preserving the earth’s authentic imprint without replacing it with synthetic alternatives.
    Titanium Steel ( earbij Selected Series) – Durable and hypoallergenic, titanium steel extends the lifespan of each piece, helping reduce waste.
    All our materials are nickel-free and safe for everyday wear.

    Packaging

    To minimize the environmental harm caused by plastic and single-use packaging, we’ve adopted a full collection of biodegradable alternatives.

    Our shipping mailer is 100% biodegradable, made from bio-based material — cornstarch and polyethylene.

    To abolish plastic, we gently wrap each jewlery in a handmade cotton tea-packaging paper. This paper is soft, harmless, and moisture-absorbent, traditionally used to keep tea, biscuits and books. If you notice any slight tarnishing on your silver piece when you open the package, please gently polish it with the included silver-cleaning cloth. Thanks for your effort in protecting our planet!

    Our gift boxes are made from recycled materials. However, we still hope you’ll give them a third life so it’s designed as strong and reusable. We would be delighted to see how you creatively reuse them. Feel free to share your photos with us on Instagram @earbij / tiktok@earbij or via email.

    Designed to Last, Not for Fast Fashion

    We envision earbij jewelry as companions for the long term—not pieces to be quickly replaced.
    Through careful craftsmanship and enduring materials, we strive to minimize disposable consumption and unnecessary waste.
    To support this vision, we provide a basic warranty and selected resizing services, so your jewelry can continue to shine in your daily life.

    Our Commitments

    Small-scale production – Preventing resource overuse.
    Eco-conscious materials – Prioritizing recycled silver and natural gemstones.
    Handcrafted artistry – Valuing the human touch in every detail.
    Responsible design – Creating jewelry that carries lasting, sustainable value.

    At earbij, we believe jewelry is more than adornment—it is the harmony of nature, craft, and responsibility.

  • Returns & Warranty

    Returns & Warranty

    At earbij, every piece is made with care, using 925 sterling silver and natural gemstones as our core materials, coupled with other carefully selected materials.
    The natural textures, color variations, and tiny inclusions in gemstones are gifts from the earth—not flaws.
    Similarly, the subtle irregularities of handcrafting are what make each piece truly one-of-a-kind.
    Because of these unique qualities, we cannot accept returns based on natural variations or handmade details.

    Ring Sizing & Resizing

    You may measure your own size at home or visit a local jeweler for a professional fitting. Please note: selecting the correct size is the customer’s responsibility, and returns due to incorrect sizing cannot be accepted.
    If resizing is required, we will evaluate whether it can be done. When possible, we provide resizing as a paid service, including return shipping. The final cost depends on the degree of adjustment and whether gemstones need to be removed and reset.
    In cases where the adjustment is too significant or poses a high risk to the stone, resizing may not be possible.

    Our Philosophy

    At earbij, we believe jewelry is more than adornment—it is part of your life story.
    With mindful care, it can accompany you through the seasons, becoming a quiet sparkle in your everyday moments.
    We hope every earbij piece becomes a small ritual of tenderness, crafted to stay by your side for years to come.

  • Care

    Jewelry Care Tips

    At earbij, jewelries are handcrafted from 925 sterling silver and natural gemstones, while a few pieces in our Selected collection are made of high-quality tiitanium steel. To ensure your jewelry accompanies you for years to come, please follow these care guidelines:

    Care for Sterling Silver Jewelry

    Avoid chemicals: Perfumes, cosmetics, soaps, and cleaning agents may cause tarnishing or loss of shine.
    Avoid seawater and hot springs: Salt and sulfur can accelerate oxidation.
    Store separately: Silver is soft; keep it apart from other jewelry to prevent scratches and friction.
    Seal from air: When not wearing, wipe gently with a soft cloth and store in an airtight pouch to slow oxidation.
    Wear regularly: Natural body oils help protect silver, giving it a warm and subtle sheen.
    Tip: If your silver slightly tarnishes, gently polish it with a silver cloth or clean it with a small amount of baking soda and water, then dry thoroughly.

    Care for Natural Gemstones

    Avoid hard impacts: Gemstones can crack or chip if struck.
    Avoid heat and chemicals: Prolonged exposure to sunlight or cleaning agents may damage the stones.
    Regular cleaning: Rinse with water and gently pat dry. Ultrasonic cleaners are not recommended.
    Each gemstone’s texture and color are unique, which is what makes them so precious.

    Care for Titanium Steel Jewelry (Selected Collection)

    Everyday wear: While stainless steel is durable, plated finishes may naturally wear over time. This is normal wear and not a defect.
    Avoid chemicals: Strong acids, bases, or bleach may affect its finish.
    Cleaning method: Always wipe dry immediately after contact with water, sweat, or perfume to preserve the color.

    Storage Recommendations

    Store pieces separately in their original earbij box or a soft pouch.
    Avoid humid environments and direct sunlight.
    During travel or transport, handle with care to prevent pressure, scratches, or deformation.

    Warranty Policy

    earbij offers a 6-month warranty from the date of purchase.
    Covered under warranty:
    Fasteners, clasps, or gemstones/pearls falling off
    Discoloration of yellow, pink, gray, or black pieces

    Natural aging of jewelry
    Damage caused by improper use
    Total or partial loss of jewelry
    Bags and accessories

  • About Us

    About Us

    Inspired by the Canals of Amsterdam

    Our stories all began along the canals of Amsterdam. On these waters where history and modern life intertwine, the idea of earbij was first conceived. The shimmering reflections on the surface echoed the depth and beauty of stone and earth — a dialogue between nature and the city, just like the union of natural gemstones and sterling silver: pure yet radiant. From the movement of the canals, we draw inspiration; from the treasures of the earth, we gather energy — transforming both into jewelry designed to be part of your everyday life.

    Genderless · Made for Everyone

    At earbij, we believe jewelry should never be confined by gender. Every creation embodies the idea that everyone can wear it, breaking away from convention and allowing self-expression to be free and authentic. Whoever you are, wherever you come from — an earbij piece can become part of your story.

    The Poetic Union of Craft and Nature

    Each earbij piece is handcrafted in 925 sterling silver and paired with natural gemstones. We honor the raw textures and hues of every stone, preserving the unique imprint left by the earth. This dialogue between craftsmanship and nature avoids over-decoration, instead celebrating authenticity, durability, and a closeness to everyday life.

    An Extension of Lifestyle

    earbij is more than jewelry — it is a way of life.
    It can accompany you through the rhythm of work, add sparkle to a quiet afternoon coffee, travel with you to new horizons, or whisper your individuality at a night gathering.
    It can also be a gift, carrying the sincerity of human connection. We hope every earbij piece becomes a subtle light in your daily life — a reminder that even in ordinary moments, you can embrace your own uniqueness.

    Our Commitment

    Sustainable Materials: Prioritizing recycled 925 sterling silver and carefully selected natural gemstones to reduce environmental impact.
    Artisanal Craftsmanship: Each piece is hand-finished by skilled artisans, ensuring unique details and lasting comfort.
    Global Inspiration: From the canals of Amsterdam to the gemstones of the earth, our designs embody the harmony between nature and culture.

  • Craftsmanship

    Craftsmanship

    Stories Shaped in Silver

    Earbij collects thrilling designer pieces from various independent designers.every piece in earbij except for our earbij Selected Collection, begins with hands.
    Silver is shaped, polished, and breathed into life — slowly, patiently, with the rhythm of the maker’s touch. What you see is not just a ring, but the trace of time, intention, and devotion.

    Natural gemstones are never the same.
    Their colors shift with the light, their textures hold quiet secrets of the earth. To set them in silver is to honor what is already perfect — nature’s artistry meeting human craft.

    Handcraft is an act of slowness in a hurried world.
    Each curve, each detail is the result of attention and care, making every piece unrepeatable. What is born here is not mass-made jewelry, but a quiet dialogue between the maker and the wearer.

    Earbij is not about trends.
    It is about keeping a piece of earth, a fragment of time, and a human touch close to you. To wear it is to carry a story — unfinished, evolving, uniquely yours.

    To create by hand is to leave a soul within the material.
    Silver remembers the warmth of touch, gemstones hold the silence of the earth — together, they become jewelry that feels alive.

    Imperfection is the mark of the handmade.
    The slight irregularities, the subtle textures — they remind us that beauty is not in sameness, but in the authenticity of touch.

    In every piece, there is a journey — from earth to hand, from craft to soul.
    Earbij exists not only to adorn, but to remind: what is truly precious is always made with care, and always carried close to the heart.
