A
unique ethos ... 
Atelier Laibach excels in making
bespoke ethical jewellery that offers a unique blend of environmental
harmony and personal expression ... the perfect synchronicity
for those who embrace the giving or receiving of cruelty-free
jewellery made to precise goldsmith standards.
Being environmentally aware not only means questioning the
source of your jewellery, but also how it is made. Atelier
Laibach's holistic
approach and distinctive
principles assure
you that every available measure is taken to craft the most
environmentally balanced pieces. By realigning traditional
goldsmith techniques, Laibach embraces kindness to all nature,
without compromising on contemporary style or classical elegance. |

Genuinely
Responsible Goldsmithing ...
Described as
a "liberation in refined jewellery making", Kerstin
Laibach's design themes range from sculptural-contemporary
to classic-ethereal ... intricate metal craft which sweeps
dreamlike around the sensory feel of locally gathered stones.
These natural pebbles, including sea-glass pieces, are set
in their original organic form without any cutting or polishing.
The touch, comfort and durability of a Laibach piece is
achieved through meticulous care of tactual detail, including
intricate handmade chains and closing mechanisms.
With a small atelier situated in the heart of the southern
Black Forest, Germany and soon in Dorset, England, Kerstin
Laibach extends a warm welcome to all who embrace new ethical
horizons.

Confidence
in our Integrity ...
Your confidence in our ethical
integrity is very important to us, so we always aim to provide
a hundred percent clarity through our progressive principles.
Atelier Laibach always makes jewellery which is suitable
for vegetarians and vegans - and to the most stringent standards
- whereby no animal derivatives are used during construction.
Recycled materials are used, and there is an age threshold
relating to the reclamation and restoration of old jewellery.
