The brand uses only the finest, ethically sourced alloys to create every piece, and incorporates sustainability in their day-to-day operations at the office, too, from operating on solar power to implementing strict reusing and recycling policies.

From minimalist hoop earrings to delicate ID bracelets, any piece from RG’s Gold-Filled collection is a must-have for any jewelry lover.

Zoologia

With quaint, beautiful illustrations of wildlife species gracing every single one of their pieces (and their custom noissue Tissue), looking at Zoologia’s kidswear catalog is almost like looking through a vintage children’s storybook. Not only does this brand honor the beauty of wildlife with their clothing, they’re also dedicated to protecting it, too!
