Commitments

HANDMADE

All Daniela Silvestre pieces are created by Daniela. Using traditional jewellery tools and methods, our production is 100% manual and each piece takes, on average, 3.5 hours to produce and finish.

 

BY ORDER

Most of our pieces are made to order, minimizing waste and reducing our stock. In this way we save resources, dedicate ourselves to the quality of individual pieces and contribute to a lower environmental impact.

Reminder: Each piece can take up to 15-20 days to be produced and finished in our workshop in Porto, Portugal. Production time varies depending on the complexity of the piece and the finishes.

 

ETHICAL PRODUCTION

We highly value the Earth's natural resources and we commit daily to reducing our impact on the environment. We avoid the use of aggressive chemical products and, after production, we return the leftover material to our casters so that they can be melted down and reused in future works.

 

LOCAL SUPPLIERS

Our casters and suppliers (of tools, materials and plating) are located less than 15km from our workshop in Porto. Thus, we favor the local economy and avoid costly and long-distance transport.

 

SHIPPING TWICE A WEEK

We drive an electric vehicle to our courier twice a week to send your orders. Saving resources and avoiding transport with a negative impact on the environment is one of our priorities.
