Recreating beauty in a sustainable way

Few would argue against the beauty of jewelry. When the glittering diamonds and gems call out from the glass case, it is all to easy to get caught up in the moment. But, you don’t have to settle. C5 works with clients to create custom jewelry that is both gorgeous and sustainable.

One client of ours came to us after finding a ring that he really loved, but had decided not to purchase because it didn’t meet his sustainability values. Though he felt good about his decision, he was torn because he had fallen in love with that ring only after visiting several jewelers and doing extensive online research.

C5 was able to recreate the ring he wanted, but in a socially and environmentally responsible way. We made the ring with recycled palladium and used lab-created sapphires instead of mined sapphires. The diamonds were replaced with lab-created Moissanite.

The result was a stunning ring that the client loved and felt good about.
