12 Days : Kirsten Muenster Jewelry
December 13, 2005

While the choices are becoming greater, finding elegant sustainable jewelry can still be challenging. From the sourcing of materials to managing labor and chemicals this business, like any other, is filled with choices. But as I mentioned the options are growing and it is encouraging to see bright young designers like Kirsten Muenster leading the way to more sustainable practices and designs that don't skimp on style.

A graduate of the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Kirsten selects materials whose sources do not exploit slave labor or support corrupt organizations. Each necklace, bracelet, or ring she produces using silver, gold and unusual stones is one of a kind. Contact Kirsten directly for information on available pieces and commissions or visit del Mano Gallery.

But what I REALLY need is a sustainable navel ring. My old one broke! Any tips on that?
