Introducing Merchants of the Sun’s La Vita Collection
by Adriano Batista
Merchants of the Sun is not your ordinary jewellery brand. It is a brand that combines premium quality with environmental responsibility, creating stunning pieces that have minimal impact on the planet. Merchants of the Sun has just launched its SS23 collection, La Vita, which showcases the brand’s evolution as one of Australia’s leading sustainable brands.
La Vita is the largest collection that Merchants of the Sun has ever created in its three years of existence. It reflects the brand’s vision and values, blending aesthetics and ethics in every piece. La Vita features 925 sterling silver and 18k gold vermeil jewellery, adorned with traceable gemstones and recycled metals. Each piece is handcrafted by skilled artisans, who work with transparency and integrity. La Vita is a celebration of life and its beauty.
Merchants of the Sun is also committed to reducing its carbon footprint, as all its operations and products are certified carbon neutral. By doing so, Merchants of the Sun balances its impact and creation, ensuring that its jewellery leaves no trace.
The sensibility behind La Vita is evident in every piece, but it is also explained by the brand’s Founder and Designer, Matthew Banks, who shares his insights on the brand’s journey and inspiration. You can read his interview HERE, where he talks about the challenges and rewards of running a sustainable jewellery brand, and the meaning behind La Vita.
