Sustainability
Shop Responsibly with Us
At NY Minimalist, we believe in sustainable practices and are committed to reducing our environmental impact. We strive to create high-quality jewelry that is both beautiful and sustainable.
Made-to-Order
Excess production is no joke. A good portion of our available pieces are made-to-order so that we don't waste resources. Made-to-Order is one of the most sustainable production methods because instead of mass producing, we only make orders for those who ask. Producing this way helps us avoid any needless waste and allows you to be more sustainable, planning your purchase and waiting for it to be produced and delivered.
Ethically-Sourced
Our collection is designed to be timeless, made by expert artisans. Every manufacturer and supplier is carefully selected, and must use conflict-free materials with ethically sourced natural diamonds and gemstones
Recycled Gold
98% of our pieces are made of recycled gold, and that is intentional. Gold has the remarkable ability to be recycled over and over again while never losing its quality. Typically, recycled gold will come from consumer products, waste products, unused metal and other items that are made from gold. By using recycled gold, it helps us preserve natural resources, reduce green house gas emissions, helps conserve energy and decrease environmental damage.
Minimized Packaging
We want to deliver the finest jewelry, with the smallest carbon footprint. Every purchase from NY Minimalist arrives carefully wrapped in a gift ready box, with minimal recyclable packaging
Contributions
