- Josanne Mark|Horn Jewelry Collection | Trinidad and Tobago
Socially Conscious, casual Luxury Buffalo Horn Jewelry that combines a bit of edge with a bit of Boho Chic Buffalo Horn Jewelry About our Horn Jewelry Socially conscious, casual luxury that combines a bit of edginess with a bit of boho chic! This is the essence of our Horn Collection! We think of this collection as the embodiment of slow fashion. Artisan made pieces built upon sustainable, eco-friendly practices; Timeless, quality, wardrobe staples that can be worn time and time again, across all seasons and many occasions. Sustainability and Ethics in Design The Horns used in my designs are ethically harvested from the domestic Asian Water Buffalo. At least 130 million domestic water buffalo exist, and more people depend on them than on any other domestic animal. The animals spend their lives working in agricultural fields in the remote parts or South Asia and are a prized resource for villagers who depend on agriculture to survive. When they die, nothing goes to waste! Everything from the meat and hides, to the bones and horns are used for something. Thus, the sale of the horns provide an income for a great many people. As a designer and as a producer, I believe I have a duty to the next generation, to do my part in contributing to sustainable living. It brings me great pleasure to create with this material.

Josanne, will skillfully guide you through this creative exploration.

The term Bespoke refers to an item of jewelry that is created on the basis of a client’s specific request, unique design plan, purpose, time frame and budget. A bespoke design contains individual design details that are unique to the person it is being created for; as such, the exact piece will not be reproduced for someone else (except via the client's own request). All bespoke designs are essentially Custom-made (made to order for a particular customer) hence, the term is often used interchangably. Custom-made and Customized designs do not meet the definition of bespoke as they are based on our standard range of designs that have, by request, been individually altered, for example, with rearranged features or unique gems creating a non-standard personalised item. WARRANTY Your piece was carefully designed and crafted to be a cherished heirloom that will be valued by many generations. We stand behind our workmanship. Complimentary to you, we will replace or repair any piece that is damaged due to manufacturing defects (e.g. prongs that need to be tightened etc.) for a period of one year from the purchase date. Normal wear and tear, accidents and damages due to neglect, or abuse are not covered by our warranty and will be repaired at a cost to the customer. Warranty coverage is based upon our inspection and sole determination. AUTHENTICITY CERTIFICATE A Josanne Mark certificate document is available to our clients upon request. What is it? It is a document that states the Diamond carat weight, the type of diamond/s, type of metal used, along with an image of the piece, its replacement value, invoice information, name of client and additional details where necessary. When is it used? This certificate can be presented to your insurance company if you are seeking insurance coverage through a home owner or individual jewelry policy. It is issued specifically for engagement rings, wedding bands or any other item of fine jewelry set with diamonds or stones. OUR PACKAGING Every bespoke creation is nestled in packaging that mirrors the distinctive elegance of the jewelry it holds. Whether it's a refined hardwood case, a leather or linen box with plush velvet lining, each package is selected with a high degree of mindfullness, enhancing your pivotal milestone moments. Along with your purchase, you receive a polishing cloth on the house, to maintain the luster of your jewelry. Additionally, each piece is accompanied by a card, crafted from either rich mahogany or sleek stainless steel, authenticating it as an exclusive Josanne Mark design.

Frequently Asked Questions about Forever-with-You Sustainability in Action
- Ethical Metals, Traceable Gems & Responsible Craftsmanship
Discover how we craft fine jewelry with ethical metals, traceable gemstones, and responsible Caribbean craftsmanship. Luxury designed to honour both people and planet. OUR COMMITMENT to sustainable luxury Luxury should feel good; not only to wear, but to believe in! Every piece we create honours the earth, the hands that shape it, and the legacies it will live through. Our sustainability practices are built on traceability, mindful craft, and a deep reverence for nature. Ethical Materials, Transparent Origins Our Metals The journey of precious metal, from the earth to the jeweller’s bench, is long and intricate. It passes through miners, refiners, traders, and a network of specialists before finally reaching our workshop, where it is shaped into an heirloom. With so many hands involved, true traceability is only possible when every step in this chain is governed by rigorous, internationally recognised standards. This is why we work exclusively with suppliers certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) ; the global authority that audits and upholds ethical, environmental, and human-rights standards within the jewellery industry. Their certification is a third-party verification that every participant in the supply chain complies with: the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for responsible mineral sourcing strict human-rights protections anti-corruption practices fair labour standards environmental stewardship requirement Our partners use recycled (above-ground) precious metals whenever possible, dramatically reducing the demand for new mining. When newly mined gold is necessary, it is sourced only from responsible, RJC-certified mines operating with transparency, safe labour conditions, and environmental care. This commitment ensures our metals are traceable, ethical, and aligned with the highest global standards of responsible luxury. Marabella, Trinidad & Tobago Our Gemstones We source all diamonds and most of our coloured gemstones through suppliers who provide GIA or equivalent laboratory certification, ensuring both authenticity and accountability. Our suppliers are long-standing industry professionals committed to ethical sourcing, responsible practices, and full transparency. Whether you choose natural or lab-grown diamonds /gems, each stone is vetted for: traceability conflict-free origins certification validity responsible human-rights practices quality and beauty For clients wishing to honour their personal history, we also work with heirloom stones, giving treasured gems a new life in contemporary designs. Mindful, Small-Batch Craftsmanship Our studio in Trinidad operates on a small-batch, low-waste model one rooted in slow luxury and intentional creation. Every piece is hand-finished with meticulous care, allowing us to maintain exceptional quality without unnecessary excess. We prioritise: designing with minimal waste, repurposing clients’ sentimental gemstones, producing made-to-order pieces to eliminate overproduction and careful tool, chemical, and resource management. This approach honours both tradition and sustainability; proving that fine jewelry can be environmentally conscious without compromising on beauty. Human Rights & Ethical Partnerships Our commitment to responsible craftsmanship extends beyond materials to the people behind them. We partner with suppliers whose policies uphold internationally recognised human-rights standards, including the ILO Principles, UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, and the RJC Code of Practices. Their operations are guided by: safe and ethical working conditions zero tolerance for child labour or forced labour fair wages and reasonable working hours anti-bribery and anti-money-laundering systems clear accountability and grievance mechanisms These standards are central to the certifications held by our overseas casting partners, whose documented policies reinforce their commitment to responsible practice from mine to finished metal component. By aligning ourselves with certified partners , we ensure the materials that reach our workshop have been handled with dignity, fairness, and transparency. Environmental Responsibility Luxury feels richer when it carries a conscience. Our environmental approach is rooted in long-term sustainability rather than short-lived trends. We keep our footprint intentionally small, producing in limited quantities and crafting each piece with a level of care that naturally limits waste. Every decision; from how we source, to how we design, manufacture and package, is made with deep respect for the world that inspires our work. Durability is central to our philosophy; when a piece is built to last for generations, its impact becomes gentler, and its beauty more meaningful. Longevity, after all, is one of the most powerful forms of sustainability. Frequently asked questions Are your diamonds conflict-free? Yes. Our diamonds and gemstones are sourced exclusively through trusted suppliers who follow internationally recognised ethical standards and provide full transparency in their practices. Do you use recycled metals? We prioritise recycled, above-ground metals refined through RJC-certified suppliers , reducing the demand for newly mined resources while maintaining exceptional purity and consistency. Because our pieces are cast using highly specific, professionally controlled alloys, we do not recycle client-supplied scrap gold. This ensures that every piece is made from metals of known composition and integrity, preserving the strength, durability, and finish required for fine jewelry. Can I request documentation for my gemstone? Absolutely. For diamonds and select gemstones, a GIA (or equivalent) laboratory report is available for eligible stones. In bespoke or custom projects, certification is decided together during the sourcing stage, based on the type of stone you choose and the level of documentation you prefer. Do you offer lab-grown diamonds and coloured gems? Yes. We offer both natural and lab-grown options. Can you work with my heirloom stones? We would be honoured to. Heirloom stones carry meaningful personal history and are a thoughtful, sustainable choice. We assess each stone for suitability before starting the design to ensure it can be securely and beautifully set. How does packaging fit into your sustainability commitment? Our packaging is intentionally minimal and designed to be kept rather than discarded. We choose materials that align with our environmental values and avoid unnecessary plastics. Do you ship sustainably? We choose shipping partners that offer reliable, efficient routes and constantly evaluate options to reduce environmental impact. Our focus is always on balancing responsible shipping with the safety of your heirloom piece. "Every piece we create honours the island that inspires us, & the world it will live in long after us."

- About The Designer|Josanne Mark|Trinidad & Tobago
Josanne Mark is a Luxury Jewelry Designer with over a decade of experience. Her designs exude unique sophistication and have been featured in Vouge Magazine. Get To Know Josanne HOW IT ALL STARTED Josanne graduated from the prestigious Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in Manhattan in 2011 Summa Cum Laude with the degree in Jewelry Design but the degree was not the start of her success, merely a step along the road. Born and raised in Trinidad and Tobago, Josanne is a South girl, from the industrial, oil producing area of Fyzabad. While studying at the University of the West Indies where she pursued her Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Human Resource Management, Josanne’s passion for design and beautiful things incited her to create jewelry which she sold to her fellow students and to a number of souvenir shops in Trinidad’s capital. PURSUING A PASSION FOR DESIGN After graduating from University, she pursued her passion full-time and was recognized as a top youth entrepreneur in the National Youth Awards of 2008. Her first jewelry line as a full-time designer was accepted by a leading luxury retailer in Trinidad and Tobago; a feat which opened doors for other local designers. Her collections have been showcased at several select events throughout Trinidad and in New York where she participated in the prestigious Grand Central Holiday exhibition. Her work was also showcased at Studio 66 Art Gallery in Upstate New York and in many online exhibitions including the esteemed Ganoskin Project, one of the oldest online jewelry resources. Josanne is member of the Manufacturing Jewelers and Suppliers of America Association and continues to develop her knowledge base in her pursuit of her passion. DESIGN PHILOSOPHY Josanne's work is rooted in reverence; for nature, for legacy, and for the power of mindful creation. Her work is a poetic ode to the intricate dance between form and emotion, where jewelry transcends its material value to become a catalyst for self-expression. Her creations are a harmonious blend of organic contours and geometric precision; each piece combines the soul of traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. DESIGN INSPIRATION In the world according to Josanne, inspiration is as boundless as the horizon. It is in the tangible textures of the Earth, in the ephemeral beauty of human emotion, and in the myriad of experiences that color our existence. Her designs are a conduit for the stories we carry, crafted not only with the hands but with the heart; each piece a reflection of the infinite muse that is life itself . Her rather panoptic artistic point-of-view lends to her diverse design style that is both engaging and unpredictable. SUSTAINABILITY & INTEGRITY Each piece begins with conscious choices; from recycled gold and conflict-free stones to packaging crafted from renewable materials. Josanne's goal is simple: to create heirlooms that carry love forward without compromising the world we leave behind. She crafts jewelry that’s as kind as it is beautiful. Sustainability, to her, is a value system: She designs slowly, produces intentionally, and partners with suppliers who share a respect for ethical practices and the preservation of our world’s natural beauty. .
