Sustainability & Ethical Responsibility

At earbij, we believe jewelry is not only an expression of beauty, but also a commitment to nature and society.
Every piece is created with respect for the earth’s gifts and the craftsmanship of artisans.

Our Production

All 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.
Stainless Steel (Selected Series) – Durable and hypoallergenic, stainless steel extends the lifespan of each piece, helping reduce waste.
All our materials are nickel-free and safe for everyday wear.

Packaging

We are gradually refining our packaging to lighten its impact on the environment:
Using recyclable paper and eco-friendly fabric pouches instead of single-use plastics.
Keeping packaging simple yet durable, encouraging reuse.
Exploring innovative, sustainable materials for the future.

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

At earbij, every piece is handcrafted with care, using 925 sterling silver and natural gemstones as our core 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.

Return & Exchange Policy

You have 15 days from the date of purchase to request a return or exchange.
Requests made after this period may not be accepted.
During special seasons (such as Christmas), the return window may be extended to 30 days.
The following items are not eligible for return or exchange:
Discounted products or items purchased with a promo code
Limited edition collections

Every earbij piece comes with a 6-month warranty from the date of purchase.

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.

Jewelry Care Tips

At earbij, every piece of jewelry is handcrafted from 925 sterling silver and natural gemstones, while some pieces in our Selected collection are made of high-quality stainless 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 Stainless Steel Jewelry (Selected Collection)

Everyday wear: Stainless steel is durable and water-resistant, suitable for daily use.
Avoid chemicals: Strong acids, bases, or bleach may affect its finish.
Cleaning method: Gently wipe with warm water and a soft cloth.

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.

Fasteners, clasps, or gemstones/pearls falling off

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
