While I am very careful to source my precious metals only from SCS® certified suppliers (SCS® stands for Supply Chain Sustainability; they are the global leader in the field of sustainability standards and third-party certification). Most of my precious metals suppliers are also members of the Responsible Jewellery Council. However, I want to point out that ‘recycling gold' is not what is commonly understood by the term.
True recycling avoids things ending up in landfills. Gold, of course, wouldn’t.
Instead, gold is simply melted, refined and repurposed.
Although SCS® certified refineries must maintain auditable records of their suppliers, there are loopholes globally which make it very easy for gold from unregulated and/or illegal sources to enter their supply chain.
This makes even 'certified recycled' gold untraceable.

The energetic OCEAN ring in my Script Series is inspired by a pilgrimage through India, and the energetic movements of the ocean in Nova Scotia.
Initially, the calligraphic lines of signs seen throughout India made me play with fluid movement. As I worked the lines I started seeing their relationship to the movement of water.
I am extremely pleased to bring you this design. It’s an excellent one for customizing with a beautiful gem in the centre.

Note my caveat about the general use of the word "recycled gold."
