Why Fairmined?
As an abstract artist, I have always been fascinated by how any given choice or action affects the outcome of a piece. Whether it be the choice of one color over another or observing how the quality of a line guides and informs the eye and mind of the viewer, these decisions and their consequences are integral to the final piece. As an artisan jeweler and a human being in the 21st century, I want to go deeper and expand that interest in action/reaction/outcome from art to life itself. I feel it is important to commit to working in positive relationships with all the individuals and communities involved in bringing these jewels to life. Working with Fairmined gold gives me an exciting opportunity to achieve an important piece of this dream.

Jewelry is a journey through space and time – connecting many of the universal elements found on Earth and in the solar system to you. Purchasing a piece of jewelry made with Fairmined gold supports and connects you to a community of miners committed to extracting gold in a socially and environmentally sustainable manner. It is responsible consumerism that not only promotes positive outcomes for all but inspires everyone to a better, more connected life.
