PLUSH AF TOWELS | THE JOURNAL

Introducing: the VADA logo beach towel. Made in the North Carolina at the last remaining US towel factory, each towel is set up on a loom with 200 spools of thread. They are 1 pound each in weight and are hand sheared after weaving. Oversized for multifunction, the VADA towel can also be used as a beach blanket.

MANUFACTURING: JEWELRY | THE JOURNAL

Our jewelry is designed + produced inside our studio in Austin, Texas. We produce in small batches and everything is made to order. The brand houses a handcrafted collection and a curated vintage collection. We also offer custom services, please email info@vadajewelry.com to inquire. We work with recycled metals and post-consumer diamonds wherever possible. We proudly source conflict-free materials and any out of studio labor within the United States of America. We are a team of five women.

After visiting our factory in Japan I noticed a lot of parallels between jewelry and eyewear production as well. We use some of the same polishing equipment and tumblers. My understanding of jewelry production has really helped me through this process. Oakley Sunglasses, Sunglasses, Jewelry Production, Sunnies, Sunglasses Case, Japan

ECO PACKAGING | THE JOURNAL

In our ongoing efforts to support sustainability, every VADA order is mindfully packaged using eco-friendly materials from US facilities that operate exclusively on wind and solar energy. Our shipping box is printed with all-natural vegetable inks on 100% Post Consumer Waste recycled paper, padded with 100% PCW & PIW corrugated-cardboard, and sealed with craft paper tape in our custom Greek-key print repeat. All packaging items are then fully recyclable, naturally biodegradable and compostable.
