Certificates of Authenticity
A note on the nature of truth in thread.
Not every story is signed.
Not every truth must be worn with a seal.
But for those who desire it — the trace, the thread, the proof of provenance — we offer a certificate of authenticity: quietly issued, precisely composed.
Of Fisures and Fibres
At Sylvért, every collection is born from fibres of verifiable origin. The goats, the shepherds, the hands — all are known to us. As standard, we submit a randomised batch of garments for fibre authentication with the relevant regulatory body.
This method ensures truth without excess.
And in all our years, not one counterfeit has crossed our path.
For those who wish for more — for something printed, recorded, sealed — an individual certificate of authenticity may be requested for a fee of £20 per garment. This process will add a minimum of 2 weeks to the delivery time but you will be liased with accordingly and extra tracking information will be provided.
What you will receive is not simply a document, but a small archive:
A personalised printed brochure, prepared for your piece alone
An official GI (Geographical Indication) tag
A discreet QR code leading to a digital certificate, verifying:
– The region and altitude of harvest
– The name of the shepherds and their Changthangi goats
– The season of collection
– The artisan or manufacturer responsible
– A formal stamp of verification from the certifying body
