Nothing finishes off a summer outfit quite like a little sparkle, courtesy of gorgeous eco-friendly necklaces, earrings, bangles or rings. Whether you’re a fan of moody, high-drama vintage pieces or prefer minimalist designs with clean, modern lines, you’re sure to find something you like from our picks for this summer’s hottest recycled jewelry from designers like Kumvana Gomani, Sarah Perlis and Prismera Designs.


 

Fleur de Lis Expandable Wire Bangle Set by Alex and Ani

This set of seven gorgeous embellished bangles and three plain bangles is chic and sparkly with a Fleur de Lis theme which, explain designers Alex and Ani, helps the wearer channel self-assurance and confidence. Easily adjustable for a custom fit, this wire bangle set is handcrafted from recycled materials.


Snö Leaf Necklace by Kumvana Gomani

Even in the heat of the summer, you can be cool as ice with the Sno Leaf Necklace by Kumvana Gomani. Each hand-made leaf and flower had a previous life as a PET plastic bottle, but they’ve been reincarnated into pretty, delicate charms that will bring a touch of shimmer to your collarbone.


Stacking Stone Rings by Dawes Design




Design your own custom stacked set of rings with this collection of stunners from Dawes Design, which uses only recycled gold, conflict-free diamonds and responsibly mined stones. You can pick from a range of stone shapes, sizes and colors as well as various tones of gold and silver.


Sarah Perlis Disc Dangle Earrings

Sarah Perlis melts down silver and gold to create her stunning eco-friendly jewelry designs, such as this dangling, eye-catching pair of hammered disc earrings. Perlis also makes ‘In the Rough’ diamond rings from sustainably panned diamonds, which are stunning in their simplicity – perfect for the eco-conscious bride-to-be.


Eco-Friendly Verdigris Necklace by VeridiAum

Nothing catches the light quite like a cluster of crystals. This incredibly unique necklace by VeridiAum is made with an antique bronze pendant covered in seafoam green cystals. All materials used to create the one-of-a-kind necklace are upcycled and eco-friendly.


Chrysanthemum Earrings by Prismera Design

Steel is the most recycled material in the world, and almost all of the hazardous waste once generated by the steel industry is now being recycled for beneficial use. Prismera Designs creates sustainable steel jewelry that is surprisingly soft and feminine, in botanical shapes like orchids, fir and Virginia ivy.
