Rocks as Radiant & Responsible as You (+ GIVEAWAY)

Date: December 13, 2010 | Category: Fashion, Jewelry, Women

Diamonds may be a girl's best friend, but conflict-free, fair trade, gently used diamonds make for an even better best friend. That's the concept behind NYC-based jewelry designer Tracy Matthews, who marries custom designs with sustainable materials (read: all recycled metals and conscious gems) to create unique, exciting adornments, from cocktail rings to earrings to pendants. Creating sustainable jewelry arose naturally for Matthews, whose clients began commissioning her to design engagement rings and wedding bands using recycled precious metals and stones. When she's not using conflict-free, Canadian diamonds in her designs, Matthews "recycles" them, acting as a broker between buyers and sellers. Contact Matthews to whip up a special, one-of-a-kind bauble for your beloved, or check out her offerings and see what's currently in stock. Feelin' lucky? Five ecofabulous readers will walk away with these gorgeous renewed sterling silver hoops (retail value $88). Here's what you've got to do for a chance to win: 1. make sure you're signed up as an ecofabulous subscriber, 2. head over to our facebook page and leave a comment about what you'd wear with these silver beauties - dress them up or down, we just want to know the outfit you're planning to wear when you collect your winnings! The contest will run through December 24, 2010. Can't wait to get your hands on a piece of Matthews eco jewelry? She's offering a few pieces at 25-35% off just for ecofabulous readers! The discount is already reflected for the following pieces: 10k renewed gold drip hoops, OM Pendant in renewed metal and the 14k renewed gold and green diamond necklace. But hurry, because once they're gone, they're gone!
