Circular economy
Heritage Vintage
In the heart of our changing world, where sustainability and responsibility are becoming increasingly important, a movement is growing stronger. For us as a manufacturer and supplier of gold and silver goods, it is therefore important to take a stand and continue to cultivate our values through greener and more sustainable production.
The movement is about teaching us to give new life to the treasures of the past, to be innovative in production and packaging choices, and to embrace reuse to create a circular economy where valuable resources are used over and over again.
An adventurous journey
Heritage Vintage
Arven Vintage is a concept that has grown out of this movement and in step with our journey towards greener production. Arven Vintage is about giving new life to old treasures that have been forgotten, damaged or no longer used by our customers. In the past, we have purchased gold and silver from our customers and sent the metal for melting, refining and recycling. As a manufacturer and supplier of jewelry, silver cutlery and interior design, we have well-trained eyes. Sometimes we come across beautiful jewelry, beautiful silver cutlery and interior design that we simply don't have the heart to let go for melting. These are objects we know the value of and the craftsmanship behind them, and it was these treasures that started our Arven Vintage adventure.
Sustainability and responsibility
Recycling of gold and silver
When we choose to reuse gold and silver jewelry, cutlery and interior design, we are taking a conscious step towards a future where every metal tells a story of sustainability and responsibility. The shadows of mining, with its impact on the environment and society, are replaced by the joy of seeing old metals given new life. Every piece of jewelry, cutlery or candlestick that is given a new life reduces the need for further extraction.
Handmade by the heritage
100% recycled gold and silver
Since we purchase gold and silver from our customers, this gives us the opportunity to take a greener path within our own production. It is due to the trust of our customers, who sell gold and silver to us, that we can operate a 100% recycled in-house production.
HANDMADE by Arven is jewelry, silver cutlery and silver interior that is produced and handmade by us in Arven. We are proud to tell our customers that everything within HANDMADE by Arven is made from 100% recycled gold and silver.
Anyone can invest in gold and silver.
The process behind
One of the purposes of Arven Vintage is to make it possible for more people to invest in gold and silver through favorable and competitive prices. To understand why the prices can be kept so low, it is important for us at Arven to communicate what the process with Arven Vintage is like.
The entire process with Arven Vintage is carried out at our factory in Bergen. The customer comes in, or sends in gold and silver that the customer wants to sell to us. Our skilled professionals quality check, make cosmetic repairs, clean and polish each item that is to be resold through Arven Vintage. Each item is then registered in our systems with price, image and text before the item is put up for sale in our store and online store. Since the entire process takes place at our factory in Arven, this process is very cost-effective. This gives us the opportunity to sell gold and silver items for approx. 50-70% below the price of a similar new item in a store.
