Remake: The Ethical of Jewelry Making

ASTOR + ORION FEATURED IN REMAKE ARTICLE ON THE ETHICS OF JEWELRY MAKING

 

Remake just published a new article examining why so many jewelry brands aren't hitting the mark on sustainability and ethics when it comes to building their supply chains. Featuring Astor + Orion founder, Karen Hartman it discusses her inspiration for rethinking how jewelry could be designed and manufactured in a way that keeps the people and the planet in mind.

 

“The idea is that instead of continually taking resources from the planet, making a product, and then throwing it away at the end of its life, we could do something better. What if, instead, we kept resources in a loop where they are endlessly recycled or composted back into the earth in a regenerative way? What if, instead of worry[ing] about how to clean up toxic materials, we just never used them in the first place?”

-Karen Hartman, Astor + Orion
