Upcycling, a committed choice
Upcycling is a method that reduces waste and maximizes the use of existing resources. This approach has a real positive impact on the environment because by giving a second life to an existing object, we save the energy and raw materials needed to manufacture new products and limit waste production. By choosing upcycled jewelry, you contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle. sustainable and more responsible.
Locally produced:
My workshop is located in Joliette, Quebec. Jovettine jewelry is conceived, created, cleaned, and handcrafted there with love and care. Thank you for supporting small, independent artists by purchasing authentic, handmade jewelry. Thank you for shopping with us and supporting local businesses. I am now on lespagesvertes.ca
Raw materials:
I prioritize recycling and work primarily with recycled materials made from eyeglasses. My frames come from optometrists' end-of-line stock, flea markets, yard sales, donations, and unsold items from both small and large stores. In addition, I use faceted gemstones, which I carefully select from my Quebec suppliers.
Environmentally friendly jewelry:
Semi-precious stones are not made from organic materials, such as pearls, mother-of-pearl, shells, coral, and amber. I use stainless steel for the chains and findings.
Reduction of packaging waste:
With minimalist, 100% recyclable cardboard packaging, this is an eco-friendly choice. For larger packages, I also use shredded fiber. As for jewelry packaging, I 've opted for a small, reusable natural cotton bag along with a small cleaning cloth for your jewelry. My business cards are made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper.
Good habits:
To live a more responsible life, in my personal life, I try to reduce my carbon footprint as much as possible. This naturally extends to my business as well. These are simple habits that I'll share with you on social media.
Responsible delivery:
You can pick up your purchases directly from the workshop in Joliette. This is great for you and for the planet. Plus, you can come and meet me and discover my products and my workshop.
Dream of a better world:
Upcycled jewelry is much more than just a fashion accessory; it's a unique piece imbued with history. By choosing upcycled jewelry, you support a company committed to eco-responsible practices. So, don't hesitate any longer and choose upcycling for your next jewelry purchase!
