life of circle: her mission and philosophy
If the twenty-first century is about getting "on-line", modern materialism and information highways, the brand vision of life of circle is about getting back "in-line" with nature.
Our mission is to bring an auspicious feeling and pure happiness to our customers by jewellery creations with philosophical and blissful messages.
And through the organic designs, joyful meanings and traditional richness defining life of circle, we wish to continue our culture heritage of being one with nature and the universe. Being closer to nature, our Asian cultural roots and natural self, we will find peace and happiness ease to reach
At life of circle, we like to use 925 silver, 18-karat gold, diamonds and other organic materials for our jewellery. A unique feature of our silver jewellery is that they all contain 92.5% of pure silver. They are hand-polished and protected with precious 18-karat white gold plating (also known as rhodium plating), making them less vulnerable to tarnishing and oxidation. We also value traditional craftsmanship and employ many age-old techniques in creating our jewellery.
