My goal is to create beautiful jewelry while having minimal impact on the environment, animals, and people. I hope to make jewelry that people will enjoy wearing for a lifetime.

I am happy to repair, repolish, or re-oxidize any piece purchased from me for a small fee. Please contact me for more information. I’ve also put together a few jewelry care tips here.

Recycled metals

I use 100% recycled sterling silver from non-mined sources, such as broken jewelry, silverware, and dental scrap.

Any machine-made chains I use are at least 99% recycled sterling silver. I use a mix of recycled and non-recycled sterling silver findings (earring backs, posts, & jump rings). I am in the process of sourcing recycled sterling silver findings for all my pieces.

Sustainable packaging

Most of the packaging I use is made of recycled materials and/or is recyclable.

My jewelry boxes are made from FSC®-certified cardboard and water-based glue. The inserts are FSC®-certified cardboard with a topcoat made from viscose. My longer necklace/bracelet boxes have a Tall oil foam insert, which is not recyclable. Tall oil is a by-product of paper production and a greener option than traditional foam, which is derived from crude oil.

Jewelry boxes are wrapped in compostable tissue paper. Some orders also include a reusable organic or fairtrade cotton bag to store your jewelry.

All orders are shipped in recyclable and biodegradable boxes with recyclable shipping labels and paper tape.
