Piaget Certified By The Responsible Jewellery Council

The Responsible Jewellery Council takes in account all the ethical, human rights, social and environmental standards and practices throughout the jewelery industry – from mining to retail. Their commitment aims to establish and reinforce confidence in the diamond and gold supply chain. The ultimate goal of the Council is to build a community of confidence across the whole jewellery supply chain. Membership opportunity is open to all businesses and associations participating in the diamond and gold jewellery supply, but only those who meet all of the standards can become certified. RJC Certified Members are some of our favorite luxury brands such as Cartier, Chanel, Chaumet, Baume & Mercier, and others. The RJC has over 300 members, among whose 8 of the Richemont Group Brands.

“The RJC certification represents an important accomplishment for Piaget. It participates in strongly upholding the philosophy that was introduced by Piaget’s founder, George-Edouard Piaget, which is the concern for the quality of our products and our practices. The certification demonstrates the ongoing engagement of the brand in favour of ethical values and for the protection of the environment. Piaget is proud to be an active member of RJC and to participate in the promotion of responsible practices that are within our domain,” says Philippe Léopold-Metzger, CEO of Piaget.
