Did you know that there is enough gold and silver already mined, to last for eternity? Mining for new metals damages the local environment and harms wildlife. All brands listed in this post are made from recycled metals and also vegan-friendly (no bone, leather, shell, pearl etc). If you have broken necklaces or odd earrings no longer used, donate them to your local animal shelter. It can sell the scrap metal, to help raise funds!
