5 Ethical Jewelry Brands You Should Check Out

 JEWELRY MADE WITH SUSTAINABILITY


Sustainable Jewelry


Are you looking for ethical jewelry for everyday wear? Look no further than these brands to accentuate your wardrobe with a bit of sparkle! 


WHAT MAKES IT SUSTAINABLE? 

I look for several things in sustainable jewelry - Who made it? From what? Can I wear it for many years to come? I value transparency within the supply chain. The person creating the jewelry should be treated well and earn a fair wage. 



1) aid through trade



I have only found a bracelet that I can wear for the whole day without it falling off my baby wrists thanks to the Original Roll-On Bracelet creators. They are my favorite! They are all handcrafted by Nepalese artisans with love. 


2) Obakki



Obakki's gorgeous collection of jewelry is crafted by one of their artisan partners. As almost everything at Obakki is made from upcycled and locally sourced materials, Obakki's team loves the concept of taking something forgotten and making it into something beautiful and new. 



3) Arlokea



Arkokea aims to address social issues surrounding health, education, and poverty using ethical jewelry. By purchasing, you are supporting entrepreneurship among marginalized communities around the world, from Vietnam, to Ecuador, to Ethiopia. 


4) Astor + Orion



An ethical jewelry line made from recycled metals, Astor + Orion is a woman-owned business in Seattle. The pieces are hand sculpted in 3D and used circular design principles (which is absolutely stunning). Using this method, they can produce contemporary designs while offering a handmade appeal. 



5) Laura Elizabeth



It gives me great joy to discover more and more women-owned and USA-made sustainable fashion brands. Stylish, easy-to-style collections by Laura Elizabeth are great for everyday wear and layering. From sweet little pineapples to statement cuffs, this ethical jewelry brand is one we should know about.
