BoldB: A jewellery company making a difference
Britta Boeckmann from BoldB jewellery tells us about her industrial design education, her creative childhood in Germany through to moving to Wangaratta in regional Victoria then starting her own family business in Melbourne.
In this episode, Britta explains how she and her co-founder Michael researched and visited manufacturing sites to finally choose a place in the Philippines that not only met their values of sustainable and ethical practices but allowed them to have that little extra money to begin giving back straight away.
BoldB creates unique, statement jewellery inspired by Australian nature. It uses beach sand, concrete and wood inspired by the Australian coastline and our rich natural resources. But not only does it look beautiful, each collection supports incredible non-profit organisations so you can not only look great but feel proud of the positive impact your purchase has on the world.
Could this be the new and improved way of doing business?
They Aqua Collection supports the water.org foundation started by actor Matt Damon and Gary White. Each piece looks like an Australian beach and each piece supplies one person with two years of clean water.
The Cluster Collection which is just so strikingly bold funds a girl’s secondary school education for a day in a low-income community, through their partnership with Room to Read.
And every purchase from their Nacre Collection will help protect our precious ocean wildlife, through their support for the Australian Marine Conservation Society.
