Why Vintage Jewelry is Eco Friendly

PostDateIcon September 29th, 2009 | PostAuthorIcon Author: admin

Go Green by Buying and Wearing Vintage Jewelry

  • Buying and wearing pre-owned vintage jewelry reuses and recycles valuable material.

  • Buying vintage jewelry reduces manufacturing processing;  it was already made years ago.

  • Buying vintage jewelry supports small businesses.

  • Many vintage jewelry pieces are rare and one of a kind so you can still wear beautiful jewelry and be environmentally friendly at the same time.

  • Rhode Island was once the ” Capitol of the World ” of costume jewelry manufacturing, therefore  much of the vintage costume jewelry around today was made in America.

  • Many jewelry manufacturers of the past used high quality materials and had high standards for craftsmanship, which is why you can still find vintage jewelry in excellent condition today.

  • Many costume jewelry manufactures of the past hired famous jewelry designers, such as Trifari, Alice Caviness, Bogoff, Kramer, Krementz, Lisner and many more.  Jewelry collectors have been buying up these ” future heirlooms “  for years.

  • Many of the famous jewelry designers of the past created such ingenious designs that their styles are timeless. Vintage jewelry comes in all styles; from funky to classic, from glitzy to tailored to simple elegance.  A lot of pieces can be found that are as contemporary today as the day they were made.
  • Much of vintage jewelry today is considered art or at the very least a feast for the eyes.
  • A vintage necklace, bracelet, brooch, ring or a pair of earrings makes a fashion statement that will be sure to get compliments.

    • Until Next Time
