Jul 10, 2024
At Sayre Studio, sustainability is incredibly key to us as women, writers, readers, consumers, and entrepreneurs. Our dedication to sustainable jewelry, ethical fashion, and eco-friendly accessories reflects our commitment to protecting the planet and fostering responsible craftsmanship. Here’s a glimpse into how we bring this vision to life.

Sustainable Jewelry: A Fusion of Design and Responsibility

We create our designs in the vibrant locales of the American Southwest and New York City, drawing inspiration from the rich cultural tapestry and natural beauty of these regions. Each piece is then meticulously crafted in a certified green factory in Jaipur, India, using 100% recycled metals from ethical, conflict-free sources. By choosing recycled materials, we minimize our environmental footprint and contribute to a circular economy.

Ethical Fashion: Upholding the Highest Standards

Ethical fashion is at the core of our philosophy. Our partner factory in Jaipur is compliant with SEDEX 4 Pillar standards, which represent the pinnacle of global benchmarks for labor, health & safety, business ethics, and environmental practices. This compliance ensures that every piece of jewelry is made under fair and safe conditions, honoring the dignity and rights of every individual involved in the process.

Eco-Friendly Accessories

Creating eco-friendly accessories is more than a practice; it’s a promise. We interviewed dozens of manufacturers to find the most skilled and sustainable partner. This thorough selection process led us to a factory that not only shares our values but also excels in sustainable craftsmanship. We enjoy a close working relationship with their craftspeople, operations team, and leadership, ensuring that our high standards are consistently met.

Sustainable Craftmanship

Our dedication to sustainable craftsmanship means preserving traditional techniques while embracing innovative methods to reduce waste. Each piece is handcrafted with precision and care, avoiding the mass production processes that often lead to excess and overproduction. This approach results in unique, high-quality jewelry that stands the test of time and trends.

Our Commitment to the Earth

As we continue to grow, our commitment to sustainability grows with us. We are constantly looking for new ways to reduce our impact on the planet we love. From eco-friendly packaging to energy-efficient practices in our operations, every aspect of our business is designed to support a sustainable future.
