Donate broken necklaces or odd earrings to Recycling for Good Causes (list your local animal shelter: they sell the metal and pass on funds).
You can also send unwanted jewellery (and watches) to Animals Asia, where cash raised helps to rescue moon bears.
This recycled promise ring is from a trained silversmith who handcrafts all pieces and also uses recycled gold.
Adorned with 5 delicate sparkling CZ stones (zirconium dioxide are ‘manmade diamonds’ to avoid mining), it’s finished with a textured organic finish on the front, and smooth refined finish on the back for comfort. Makes a lovely affordable wedding ring
