Every piece we make is sold, recycled or reinvented.

Why no two Lavanis are alike
As you may already know, we always use natural semi-precious stones in our designs. These stones, besides being an added value to the whole process of manual creation of the jewelry, give it a distinctive and unique touch.
Nature is beautiful and provides us with stones of all colors, sizes and shapes. Thanks to this and to the manual process of stone cutting that our artisans perform one by one, we get that each jewel has its tone, its sparkles and its distinctive characteristics that differentiate it from any other Lavani design, even if it is the same model.
Our inspiration comes from almost everywherefrom the mysteries of historical jewels, to the life cycles of nature, to everything around us: architecture, art and travel. For us, inspiration comes at the right time, and we have to keep our eyes open for new discoveries.
Each collection has its own historyWe love that the client is fully introduced in the moodboard of inspiration and influences of each of the pieces.
From the sketch to the final piece
All LAVANI pieces are made in our workshops by hand, using traditional jewelry techniques. The first of the pieces, in many cases, is sculpted by hand, and then the mold is made that will give rise to all the pieces, using the ancient method of lost wax casting.
Our smoothly polished or brushed textures can only be achieved with high quality hand finishing.
Natural stones have been part of our DNA from the beginning. We started making dyed pieces with natural quartz druse, being pioneers in Spain in using this stone in designer jewelry.
Today we have a catalog of natural, semi-precious and precious stones of vibrant colors and responsible origin, coming from various parts of the world. Our experts carefully select each stone individually, paying special attention to their color and texture, so that they look spectacular once cut.
Sometimes, we use the stone "raw", that is, as it is provided by nature. Other times, we carve it and add facets to make it shine. The carving of the stones is a very laborious process, since they have to fit the mold we have created.
All our gold-plated pieces are plated with 2 or 3 microns of gold. This micronage is much higher than the European production, and means that the jewelry is plated two or three times in a row, achieving a thick layer of gold. This process allows to fuse pure metals, without nickel or other inferior metal alloys.
In addition, all our jewelry has a final lacquered layer. This layer protects the metal, preventing it from scratching, making the bath last longer, and also prevents allergies.
Hypoallergenic jewelry
Free of cadmium, tin and nickel. With a layer of protective lacquer and noble metals to take care of you.
Why our jewelry does not cause allergies
All our jewels are hypoallergenic. From Lavani's workshop, we are very aware that many of you are allergic to some metals. Therefore, we work every day to ensure that all our jewelry does not cause allergies:
- We do not use cadmium, tin or nickel in any of our jewelry, as these are the main allergens.
- All pieces are finished with a final coat of protective lacquer, which prevents you from developing an allergy.
- We use only noble metals, as they are proven to be hypoallergenic.
Once we have the three-dimensional design, we send it to the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office to validate the registration and patent of the industrial design. The designs undergo a careful study, since the SPTO must ensure that it is a totally original model. Only when we have the industrial registration file approved, we have the collection ready to launch!
This is an exceptional step that we take to ensure the originality of our models and avoid that other firms produce them with worse quality that can harm you at the time of purchase. Always choose the original, say no to copies.
