Empowering jewelry buyers to be conscious consumers.
The Better Jewelry Project creates open-source and consumer-facing educational materials for free use by independent designers, brands, others in our industry, and the press. Downloadable consumer guide PDF highlighting responsibly, artisanally mined gold now available for download! Please note Creative Commons licensing information on the last page of the guide and share the guide accordingly.
We shine a light on complex issues in the jewelry industry, and present positive actions available to consumers so they can make educated purchasing choices aligned with their values.
In August of 2024, we published out first consumer guide PDF highlighting responsibly, artisanally mined gold. We will be expanding to other jewelry materials in the future.
This project was born out of the Ethical Metalsmiths Action Coalition.
