Melissa Necklace

Why We Love It

Ruff&Cut seeks to purchase their raw materials from socially responsible sources. Sources indicated are for the actual materials in the image; pieces constructed in the future may be from a different location than the source specified on this site. For transparency, each piece of jewelry is accompanied by a certificate of specific origin.

Ethically Produced

Products made outside the US that have been handpicked from companies that employ fair wage and labor practices, as well as small-scale sustainable production methods. Profits from the sale of these products directly benefit the local artisanal communities where goods are made.

Made in the USA

Domestically manufactured goods eliminate the emissions and other environmental costs associated with foreign manufacturing and overseas transport.

Recycled

Made from old materials that have been collected, sorted and processed into raw material. The recycling stream uses what would otherwise become waste to make new products, reducing the consumption of virgin resources and the pollution generated with waste disposal.
