Ethical sourcing relies on a transparent supply chain. Given the complexity of global supply networks, tracking the origin of jewelry components can be challenging, as noted by Human Rights Watch. The path of these materials from mine to market often spans multiple countries and involves questionable practices.

Before buying your next piece of jewelry, it’s vital to verify its ethical credentials. Ask retailers about the origins of the jewelry and request documentation such as certifications or letters of authenticity. Use online databases to find vendors who adhere to ethical standards. Support brands and businesses that prioritize environmental sustainability and uphold rigorous sustainability practices.
