When you do a search online for any kind of green jewelry makers, try using words such as: “certified green gold” or platinum, or look for jewelry that’s guaranteed to be sustainably mined or fairly traded.

If you want to buy a quality piece of jewelry, another great option is to check out your local resale shop or antiques store. Vintage jewels can be prettier, better made, and less expensive than newer pieces. And these hot collectibles ease stress on natural systems.

Of course, you can always make jewelry of your own—out of eco-friendly beads! Ancient Egyptians loved jewelry, creating solid glass beads as far back as 4000 B.C. and clay beads as early as 12,000 B.C. Around the world beads have held a spiritual/magical mystique. The English word “bead” derived from the Old English meaning “to pray.” The Egyptian hieroglyph for “bead” is the same as for “luck.” Also look for beads made of natural fiber, ceramic, and other sustainable treasures with which to adorn your green self.
