Why I Started My Eco-Jewelry Project

It started small — a recycled silver ring, a weekend flea market, and a cardboard sign that read “Sustainable Jewelry.” I didn’t expect anyone to stop. But when a woman picked up a necklace and asked, “How can I be sure this is recycled?”, I realized how important honesty is in business.

I showed her my supplier sheet, hallmark tag, and carbon comparison chart. She smiled and bought the piece. A week later, she emailed to say she had started stocking recycled silver in her own shop. That single message felt bigger than any sale — it proved that small choices can spread change.

The project has grown since then. I now design and sell limited pieces made from certified recycled silver. Each comes with a story card explaining its material source. It’s my way of combining creativity with responsibility — turning jewelry into a conversation starter about sustainability.

Every sale isn’t just income; it’s impact.
