Our commitment to ethical design shines through forming each piece by hand. BaYou jewelry is fine, delicate and must be handled with care & love. Gold is a soft metal and can bend, deform or break without proper care. Please keep dry and take off prior to washing your hands, taking a shower, swimming or another other activity with liquids. Apply all hair & beauty products (including lotions and perfumes) prior to putting on your jewelry as chemicals can damage some jewelry.  As with any fine jewelry, remove prior to doing household cleaning or using cleaning products.

Fine jewelry should be stored in its own box or bag, sealed and airtight. Our jewelry can be cleaned with a soft cloth.

BaYou jewelry is crafted by hand in our Downtown Los Angeles studio. Our team of artisans uses traditional metalsmithing techniques to reduce waste and avoid excess pollution usually associated with other forms of high volume and machine-made production. Our commitment to ethical design shines through forming each piece by hand. The ethos and inspiration of BaYou is manifested in every design we offer and possesses an energy that cannot be replicated. Recycled Precious Metals BaYou jewelry is made with recycled gold, including gold from technology through our partnership with Dell, responsibly extracted and recovered from Dell’s recycling programs. All metals mixed with our gold are also recycled and sourced from a refinery with the highest environmental standards. BaYou is committed to offsetting our waste in all aspects of our business, reusing and recycling everything we possibly can. Many people don’t realize that only 12.5% of electronics are responsibly recycled globally. The rest end up in landfills. Those gadgets contain valuable resources that can be recycled and upcycled, and Dell and their partners have a process for extracting gold in the U.S. that is 99% more environmentally friendly than extracting from the earth. Not to mention the ethical benefits by avoiding the harsh labor conditions where gold is so often mined. We all should be thinking “circular” in our approach to design. It’s simply a better way exist and we are proving that. Most of our pieces use exclusively recycled gold from technology through our partnership with Dell. Our Men's collection is made with 100% recycled gold, including gold from recycled technology and ink distilled down from soot found in the air which we've mixed in an enamel through our partnership with Dell. Diamonds & Gemstones BaYou strives to offer gemstones and diamonds sourced in alignment with our ethos that are natural, high-quality and mined from verified sources in environmentally responsible conditions. Our stones come from several different sources. BaYou is excited to launch our highly anticipated engagement line offering cultivated diamonds and recycled gold from tech. BaYou manufactures all jewelry in alignment with the Signet Responsible Sourcing Protocol and the Responsible Jewellery Council.

Cultivated diamonds display the same chemical and optical properties as mined diamonds. Many are grown in a highly controlled environments using solar energy and advanced technological processes that duplicate the conditions under which diamonds naturally develop when they form in the mantle, beneath the Earth’s crust. Cultivated diamonds are grown from the tiny carbon seeds of pre-existing diamonds, allowing us to enjoy real diamonds without the human and environmental toll of mining. These cultivated diamonds consist of actual carbon atoms arranged in the characteristic diamond crystal structure, and are made of the same material as mined diamonds. We do our best to use cultivated diamonds from a facility that has reduced their carbon footprint to zero, by growing their gems with solar power credits. Cultivated Diamonds are used upon request only.

Please note that we do use mined diamonds as well, and are happy to provide you with that option if it is what you prefer. Our choice to use cultivated diamonds in our Classic Collection is not an attempt to exclude mined diamonds, but instead to include what we believe is a more sustainable option, and the diamonds of the future.

All buyers looking to purchase a diamond of a specific size want the best possible quality.  With our cultivated diamonds, you never have to compromise quality (color, clarity, cut) for size (carats). We strive to create cultivated diamond engagement rings with higher quality (color, clarity, and cut) that is priced equally, if not LESS, than a mined diamond of the same size that has merely entry-level quality (e.g. J color, SI1 clarity).

Currently, we offer each piece with customizable options within our current design silhouettes. However, we are open to collaborating with clients to create bespoke pieces tailored to their specific requests so please contact us directly if this is of interest. Once we receive your deposit we will begin creating your one of a kind piece.

For our bridal collection, we offer diamonds starting at 0.5ct

Whether cultivated or mined, we can offer any cut diamond you like! Please send us your preference so we can begin sourcing your ideal stone once your deposit is received.
