What is This Symbol?

This is my symbol showing that I have a commitment to not only living Green, but more specifically to making jewelry in a Green way, which is my small part to help protect the Earth and its Critters.

Whenever possible, I purchase gemstones, metals, and supplies from companies who in turn obtain their merchandise from reputable dealers. These are companies who do not exploit the environment or the natives who mine the stone or ore; and who also have recycled metals.

I also try to use jewelry construction methods using materials that are not harmful to the environment. I use a technique called cold connections, which do not use 'hot' methods such as soldering. Wire-wrapping is a type of a cold connection.

I use recycled products for shipping and packaging, and for business stationary.
