True, most of us are used to the ever-changing fashion industry and its fleeting life cycles. But, every so often a trend will find itself a place of permanency. “Going green” has done just that; foregoing the protocol of most trends flooding the fashion scene each season. In fact, eco-conscious designers have become legitimate constituents in the green movement. One in particular, Lori Bonn, has established a stronghold in the eco-chic jewelry market premiering limited collections of stunning jewelry with beautiful semi-precious stones and silver.

Bonn has made a name for herself creating bold, interesting, statement pieces. They have been featured on the hit television show 24 and are beloved by stars like Hilary Duff and Alicia Silverstone. But after years of success in the jewelry industry, Bonn began to reflect on the ethics involved in jewelry production. In 2005, after asking herself deep-seeded questions about the origin, mining conditions, and over-consumption of materials she opened the door to a brand new venture.

Lori Bonn Design and her Clear Conscience Jewelry Line encapsulate its social responsibilities with the usage of ethical manufacturing, recycled metals and responsible gemstone production. They also are avid participants in the Madison Dialogue, an alliance of jewelry manufacturers, retailers, conservation groups, and mining associations that have united to institute standards and best practices for fair trade and ethical jewelry. Lori Bonn is committed to producing jewelry you can wear with a clear conscience. Her design brilliancy coupled with her eco-conscientious craftsmanship makes easing up on your own carbon footprint easy and stylish.  She is heavily influenced by ornate Eastern European jewelry, evident in her selection of colored stones and fantastic, inlaid designs.

Even if you have not hopped on the eco-trend bandwagon, the clever approach of using environmentally friendly materials to create fabulous jewelry is here to stay. On the other hand, if you’re committed to preserving Mother Nature than Lori Bonn and her Clear Conscience Jewelry Line is a bona-fide look.
