WHITENIFE is Asia’s first platform to curate luxury ethical fashion brands & designers from around the world. The company was found in 2012, by Ms. Sonia Agarwal, with the vision to celebrate luxury and ethical fashion.

The company was found to work with innovative, animal friendly materials. After extensive R&D, Whitenife introduced Elfh- a patented, mineral based composite, which is 89% close to genuine elephant ivory. Certified by PeTA, Whitenife is recognized for its bespoke signature Elfh Tusks and Sculptural ElfhJewellery.  In 2015, WHITENIFE decided to open its platform to curated luxury ethical brands & designers who are well recognized for their design sensibility, craftsmanship and ethical values. WHITENIFE houses over 20 brands & designers from over 10 countries and ships globally.The most important ideas are reduction in environmental damage, reduction in poverty, and a raise in the image and standards of the fashion industry.

What is “ELFH”? Tell us about the sustainable material “ELFH”

Elfh is a mineral- based composite, patent registered under “ELFORYN” and is designed to be 89% identical to genuine elephant ivory, both in regards to mechanical and aesthetical properties.  Elfh has some interesting characteristics that permit artisans to work with the similar comfort level, skills and intricacy as ivory.
