*Caveat on using the term “recycled gold”:

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.

TwoFooter Ring in Fairmined Sterling Silver

$290.00$350.00

This wrap ring is now made with Fairmined™ 930 Sterling Silver.*

Some people like to make a bigger statement: the TwoFooter starts as two feet of gold or sterling silver wire, which is first forged in various directions, then wound repeatedly into a continuous intertwining loop, wrapping around the finger many times without beginning or end. Each ring is unique and different; no two are the same.

This ring generally has 9 loops, but that can vary, depending on how much the metal was forged, and the size of the ring. Average width is 1 ½ – 2 cm (ca. ½” – 3/4″). For a more compact/masc/masculine style, I wind the length of precious metal more on the spot; for a more elongated/fem/feminine version, it is wound more along the finger.

*Fairmined™ is a standard for ethical and sustainable silver and gold that assures strict environmental and social standards. See Above and Beyond “Recycled” Silver and Gold. I had made these in recycled sterling silver, and while Umicore’s recycled silver standard is very high, it is not necessarily considered the most ethical anymore because conflict silver can make its way into the supply chain. As I learn more, I continue the journey to implement ethically-sourced metals.
