fair trade jewelry...and more of the same.

recycled wedding bandRecycled 14k gold and lightly oxidized sterling silver wedding band...

recycled gold ring...to be listed soon in my Etsy shop and my 1000 Markets shop!

And lastly, I had a customer recently ask about setting a moissanite stone on an oxidized sterling ring. I was curious what it might look like so today I propped a stone against a darkly oxidized band - I think it looks kind of cool and I should try it soon for real - what do you think?
