ECO-FRIENDLY DESIGN + SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES
We are dedicated to producing the best quality products using the best materials whilst being as eco friendly as possible. JEWELRY The creative process begins with a sketch, find, or a computer design and is translated (carved, cut, hammered, and shaped) into wax or metal before being cast in materials such as recycled silver and recycled gold. Our family owned and operated caster uses metal from United Metals, whose facility, and their fine gold, and fine silver products have been certified by SCS for 100% recycled content. SCS is a global leader in third-party environmental and sustainability certification, testing and standards development.

De-Ox Sterling Silver: Does not tarnish as fast as Sterling Silver. With good care your pieces will last a long time. PERFUME OIL During inhalation of a pure essential oil, you are inhaling the very consciousness of the plant. The intelligence or rather the energetic vibration of the plant unites with the intelligence within each of us. It is through this energetic unification that healing takes place. When essential oils are altered by artificial means, the precious heart of those oils are forever changed. For this reason we only use unaltered organic and wildcrafted essential oils, which are: - Environmentally kind and sustainable; natural and organic. - Committed to purity. - Free of petrochemicals, solvents, dyes, alcohol, pesticides, and synthetic chemicals. View this LINK for more information. - Each bottle is hand-poured to order- made specially for you. ORGANIC + WILDCRAFTED vs NON-ORGANIC Organic oils come from plants that are grown, harvested and distilled in accordance with organic practices. Non-organic essential oils come from plants that may have been grown with chemical fertilizers and sprayed with herbicides, insecticides and fungicides. In addition, non-sustainable farming practices may have been used, which do not protect the soil, water and animal life. Little or no chemical residue from such practices may be present in the essential oil, however the reason why many people prefer to buy organic products is a long-term commitment to the health and sustainability of our planet. Note: Most of the perfumes in the market place are full of acetone, petroleum, and phthalates (used to make plastics). Hundreds of studies have linked these chemicals to asthma, migraines, birth defects and cancer. JOJOBA OIL Jojoba oil is actually a liquid wax rather than a true oil, and it is very similar to the sebum of the skin. Because it forms a light, non-greasy layer that does not clog the skin’s pores. Because it is not a fat, it does not go rancid and thereby helps extend the shelf life of other oils to which it has been added. PACKAGING We utilize beautiful recycled kraft boxes and our materials are printed at GreenerPrinter. |
