Fortunoff Goes Green (and we're totally in on it!)

The Real Jewels team LOVES spreading the word...the GREEN word, that is!

Because of this, we were super excited when our friends at Fortunoff decided to take a big step in spreading the word on responsible jewelry practices by carrying...that's right -- REAL JEWELS!

We are especially pleased to announce that in addition to them carrying our creations  ONLINE ...they are also one of the responsible companies that have signed the "No Dirty Gold" pledge!

While crafting pieces that are gorgeous is something we do, our fans and loyal customers know our passion is eco friendly jewelry!  

It gives us great satisfaction to support a retailer like Fortunoff in their efforts to support No Dirty Gold and understand the importance of responsible mining and refining practices.  We just love getting the green word out there!

For new fans of our company, Real Jewels exclusively uses 100% recycled precious metals, and conflict-free diamonds...plus, even our packaging is eco-friendly!

Stay real,

Resolutions Made NOT to be Broken!

So, it's a new year, right?

You've resolved to kick your cookie & chip obsession, exercise more, turn off the TV, put out the cigarette, and feng shui your living space.  Cool.

But how about some resolutions you can actually keep (we'll help)?

Here at Real Jewels, we have this idea of "resolutions we can live with"...these will be our small ways to help the environment in 2011 and we guarantee they'll make ya feel good!  Because if we all help a little...it will amount to a lot, right?  Right!

We're curious to see what kind of eco-friendly magic tricks you have up those 100% cotton recycled sleeves of yours (just sayin')!  Leave your best ideas on our OFFICIAL FACEBOOK PAGE!

While we're talking green, we'd like to take a moment to salute the pioneers in the following organizations and give our public support to their continued effort in educating consumers on the environmental benefits of using recycled precious metals.  We here at Real Jewels are proud to be affiliated with the following organizations and encourages all consumers to learn more about what they can do to help the environment.  We now have a choice!

We invite you to take a look at these amazing organizations and the tireless work they do to protect our precious natural resources and promote sustainability!

Happy GREEN new year!

Stay real,
