Responsibly Sourced That Gives Back
Gifting responsibly sourced jewelry on any occasion will amplify her sparkle all year round!
Jewelry is always a great gift idea, but these coveted pieces are beautiful inside out because they are responsibly sourced! The “ingredients” in your fine jewelry, such as artisanally mined colored gemstones and Fairmined gold supports the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
As your jewelry guide, I help you acquire coveted jewelry that amplifies your unique personal style and your values. Beyond being ethical, conflict-free, and traceable, responsibly sourced means supporting and protecting people, their skills, and the environment - be it land or sea.
This fine jewelry edit of pieces by Thesis Gems, Feral Jewelry, and Debra Navarro is memorable and creates a positive social impact.
No matter if the occasion is a birthday, holiday, push present, or to mark a personal milestone, these collections will turn heads and empower all year round.

The designers behind the fine jewelry edit…
Intention and elemental magic are imbued in all of Mercurius Jewelry’s collections. Alisa and David consider who, where, and how their gemstones and precious metals are mined, to ensure people, their skills, and the environment are preserved and protected. They believe the origin of each part is inseparable from the complete beauty of the finished object, so they carefully source all materials with a commitment to ethics and transparency.
Feral Jewelry’s work has an untamed beauty that blends the precious with the raw - and her jewelry “ingredients” amplify our connection with Mother Nature! These include fossils (trilobites, mammoth, and walrus), petrified wood, naturally shed antlers (deer and moose), precious gemstones, and recycled gold. Susan not only celebrates animals and the natural world but also our wild power within!
Debra Navarro reveals the soul of the gemstones she selects for her jewelry. The visual and literal magic is within her signature flat facet (or two) called a “Tenda” cut. Tenda is a Swahili verb that means “to do” - and Debra Navarro’s jewels do good! She hand selects her special jewelry “ingredients” from artisanal miners in East Africa and her Watu Collection bears the name of these amazing people - many of which are women! Best of all, 5% of proceeds from the Watu collection benefits Gem Legacy. This 501(c)3 supports education, vocational training, and local economies in East African mining communities - enabling them to thrive.
Meet Debra, her jewelry, and the WOMEN and men who mine her responsibly sourced gemstones from East Africa!

WHAT DOES RESPONSIBLY SOURCED JEWELRY MEAN?
The jewelry you discover here is discerning because of the unique design signature and the careful consideration of the materials selected.
Just like we know where our food is from and who made our clothes, why not jewelry?
Responsible sourcing goes beyond ethically or sustainably sourced. This encompasses conflict-free, traceability, protecting people, their skills, and the environment be it land or sea. This is an open, evolving conversation worth having, as we all seek to make choices that align with our values.
As much as possible, the designers in this community do their best to choose jewelry “ingredients” that honor this.
Gemstones can be responsibly sourced or post-consumer recycled (recovered from previously worn jewelry to be reset in a new design).
For precious metals, this can mean using recycled gold - or a step further is mercury-free Fairmined gold.
An ongoing initiative worth following is the Jewelry Glossary Project.
The purpose is to create shared definitions of key terms within the jewelry industry for use by the trade and the public. The project was launched to increase transparency throughout the supply chain, by building consensus on definitions for key terms and creating accountability for their usage.
