ABOUT ASTOR & ORION

Worker's hands showing ethical jewelry making in a facility 3rd party certified for environmental and labor standards

 

JEWELRY IS ABOUT MORE THAN JUST LOOKING BEAUTIFUL

Astor & Orion is a different kind of jewelry brand where ethics meets aesthetics in new and surprising ways. Founded in 2019 by Karen Hartman, their designs break the mold of what is expected from an eco-brand. 

Through the adoption of an innovative 3D sculpting technology originally developed for gaming and special effects, circular design philosophy, and 3rd party certified production, Astor & Orion is showing the world you can respect the people and the planet while creating absolutely stunning jewelry.

 RESTORE AND REGENERATE THROUGH CIRCULAR DESIGN

 

Instead of approaching our environmental crisis with messages that guilt you into doing less, we are doing our part to create a system that does better.
We’ve reformed our process to take waste and pollution out from the very beginning. Our products are designed to be endlessly recycled or composted to regenerate the earth.
 

NATURE DOESN'T WASTE OR POLLUTE, SO WHY SHOULD WE?

At Astor & Orion, we put this idea into practice by making our products:

Safe Materials - We design our jewelry using materials that are safe for our customers, workers and the planet. 

Sustainable Design - We use recycled metals and design our jewelry and packaging so they can be easily recycled again without any extra processing.

Ethical Manufacturing - Our factory shares our belief in the importance of protecting the dignity and rights of their workers and the local environment.
