Materials

What each piece is made of.

18K

Gold vermeil

A thick 18k gold plate, 2.5 microns, over solid sterling silver. Heavier than standard plating, so it holds its colour for years.

925

Sterling silver

Solid, hallmarked 925 Italian sterling silver. Worn bare, or used as the base under our vermeil.

Steel

Surgical steel

A full line of rings, chains and studs in surgical steel.

Stones are sourced worldwide, from countries including Australia, Ethiopia and Afghanistan. Each is set by hand, and every piece is checked under a loupe before it leaves the bench.


The house

Started on Yonge. Settled in Kensington.

Christopher Adams grew up in Toronto's Yonge Street corridor and started his first business at 16. He began by planning events that brought young people in the city together, then started sourcing, designing and selling jewelry at pop-ups and city markets.

The first storefront opened in Kensington Market, and the people of the neighbourhood have shaped the work ever since. His collections draw on travel, culture, family and community.
