Green Karat is the Eco Jeweler that opposes destructive gold mining and offers truly ecological alternatives for fine jewelry. From the precious metals used in the setting, alloys and refinery process, to the conditions in which the stones were obtained, Green Karat provides full disclosure of the eco footprint of each piece of jewelry you buy. Our mission is to be one of the most ecologically responsible companies around and to provide enough information so that you can be an ecologically responsible consumer.

The myKarat® recycled gold registry program lets couples recycle, reuse or donate precious metals sent in by their family and friends.Your recycled gold rings will be more affordable, more eco friendly, and imbued with tremendous sentimental value - a true creation of love from your family and friends!

Most people do not discard old jewelry, even when it is broken or unwanted. They therefore have gold and other precious metals in the form of old jewelry sitting idle in their homes. Gold also sits idle in bank vaults while mining continues at a pace of 2,500 tons a year, 80% of which is used by the jewelry industry. In fact, mining continues even though we estimate that there is enough gold above ground (already mined) to satisfy all demands of the jewelry industry for the next 50 years.

By participating in the myKarat® registry, you are driving a fundamental change in the supply chain of the jewelry industry as well as helping to reduce destructive mining activity on the planet.

We invite you to design your own custom engagement and wedding rings, symbols of love that won't harm the planet.
