Recycling makes a happy bride and groom!

Recently a lovely couple came to Liza Shtromberg Jewelry to buy wedding rings.

Pave diamond white gold engagement ring

We told them they can trade in their unwanted gold and platinum jewelry and receive store credit. Their family decided to pitch in and donated a few pieces of unwanted jewelry, and one of the rings had a center diamond that we were able to use in the style the bride loved the most. We were able to modify the setting to fit the size of the diamond. With the biggest expense in a diamond ring being the center diamond, and the credit from the recycled gold, the couple was able to get their favorite styles by spending only 25% of the total cost of the rings!

And they lived happily ever after…

Create your own happy wedding ring story at Liza Shtromberg jewelry. Be green, and save green with our unwanted jewelry recycling program, and by choosing engagement and wedding rings made with 100% recycled metals and diamonds at Liza Shtromberg Jewelry. We have a new selection of solitaire styles, with complimentary his and her wedding rings.

Unconventional is the Thing with Mens Wedding Bands

White Gold Hand Sculpted Mens Wedding Band

It is wedding season, and we have been custom making our share of beautiful hand made men’s wedding bands.

Like his bride, the contemporary groom wants a ring that will stand out from the rest.  Not every groom wants a standard, cookie-cutter traditional ring.  Many would love something interesting, understated, and unique to them.

From organic to hammered, sculpted to refined, the new men’s wedding band is more than just an average ring.  When a ring is custom designed and made for a groom, it has a special and intimate quality that is truly invaluable.

Even more special is the new option of having a ring made in recycled metal.  It is a more eco-concious and ethical way to have a beautiful piece of fine jewelry, and the look of the ring is not affected at all.

LARGE BAND

For all of these reasons and so many more, it only makes sense that men are opting for custom and handmade rings over the traditional.

After all, not only is your wedding band a reflection and symbol of your everlasting love, it is itself also everlasting.

The Eco Modern Bride

In a new collective consciousness where being Eco-friendly is not only looked at as being responsible and ethical, but even stylish and hip, it only makes sense that the wedding industry would catch on. 

Contemporary weddings have often been thought of as being lavish, extravagant and even excessive events.  This ideal has led modern brides to start seeking out ways to “green” their weddings, from the decorations to the invitations, from the food to the attire.  Green, Eco-conscious weddings are becoming a cultural phenomenon, a much-welcomed change and a hopeful trend. 

Coinciding with our own ongoing effort to go green, we at Liza Shtromberg Jewelry are hoping to contribute by offering bridal jewelry, engagement rings, and wedding bands in recycled fine metals and conflict-free diamonds and gemstones. 

Even metals can be recycled, which provides an opportunity for not only brides but anyone who wears jewelry to take one more step towards going green.

 

So have no fear.  Achieving a green wedding is less complicated than you think.   Celebrating a very beautiful thing while making your own effort to lessen your own carbon footprint really does make a difference.

And that in itself is also a very beautiful thing.
