925 Recycled Sterling Silver
At Mirei, we believe that luxury doesn't have to come at the expense of our planet. Our commitment to eco-consciousness drives us to create jewelry that not only dazzles but also contributes to a greener future.
What It Is:
Our jewelry is crafted using 925 recycled sterling silver. This means we source our silver from existing materials rather than mining new silver. Despite being recycled, this silver retains the same high quality and brilliance as newly mined silver but with a significantly lower environmental impact.
How It Is Obtained:
Recycled sterling silver is collected from post-consumer and post-industrial items, such as old jewelry, electronics, and photographic materials. These items are gathered, purified, and refined to produce high-quality silver suitable for crafting our jewelry.
Why It Is Sustainable:
Reduces Mining Impact:
Mining for new silver can cause significant environmental damage, including land disruption and excessive water use. By using recycled silver, we help reduce the need for new mining operations, thereby minimizing these harmful effects.
Energy Efficiency:
The process of recycling silver consumes less energy compared to the energy-intensive process of mining and refining new silver ore. This reduction in energy use helps lower our carbon footprint.
Waste Reduction:
By repurposing existing silver, we help reduce the amount of metal waste that ends up in landfills. This approach supports a circular economy, where materials are reused and recycled rather than discarded.
Mirei takes pride in leading the way in sustainable luxury with our use of 925 recycled sterling silver. By choosing recycled silver, we not only uphold the highest standards of quality and brilliance but also contribute to a more sustainable and responsible future.
