About Kirsten Muenster Jewelry:
Kirsten Muenster Jewelry's interests, passions, hobbies and favorite activities, etc.
I am a jeweler. I use recycled, vintage and ethically sourced materials. I believe in sustainable business practices and green resources. It’s possible to have a beautifully designed piece of jewelry made with interesting materials whose cultivation does not fund corrupt organizations or promote unfair labor practices. Exploring conscious and sustainable options for my jewelry is a constant endeavor. I have two collections: One Of A Kind Collection Truly unique pieces with understated elegance, the One Of A Kind collection features recycled sterling silver, fossils, vintage and recycled objects, sustainable nuts and ethically sourced stones. Each piece is made by hand, embodying the Wabi Sabi aesthetic of natural process. Cast Silver Collection Practicing the ancient art of lost-wax casting, the Cast Silver Collection utilizes repeatability and integrity. Nature, signs of growth, rebirth and change are captured in bold oxidized patterns. Each piece is made with recycled silver and is hand finished and signed.
