Eco-friendly wedding jewelry never looked so glamorous as it does at Brilliant Earth, a San Francisco jewelry boutique and online store. Their motto is “Luxury with a Conscience,” and Brilliant Earth delivers a stunning collection of fine jewelry, rings and gifts that are fair-trade and sustainably produced. What’s more, brides rave about their enthusiastic and knowledgeable customer service.

Brilliant Earth’s diamonds are ethically sourced, and their website has plenty of information on choosing a quality diamond as well as the “whys” and “wherefores” of conflict-free. Whether you’re looking for a scintillating engagement ring or coordinating fine jewelry, Brilliant Earth’s designs are both original and timeless. When shopping online, you can order loose diamonds, or create your own engagement ring. Start by choosing your diamond—size, cut and price range will narrow your options. Next, select the setting and your favorite metal. Among Brilliant Earth’s exquisite offerings are rings inspired by Nature—we’re particularly fond of the Blossom and Garland wedding ring sets. You can also work with Brilliant Earth’s custom design consultants to dream up something entirely new and special! (Browse their Gallery of custom designs for inspiration and more on the process.)

Brilliant Earth is also one of the few Bay Area jewelry stores that carries the latest technological breakthrough in conflict-free diamonds: the cultured diamond. Though 100% genuine, these lab-created gems are less expensive and “more perfect” than their mined counterparts. They’re even available in a glittering array of “fancy” colors like canary yellow and pink that, if mined, would be out of the price range of all but the wealthiest.

Both the beauty and the ethics of Brilliant Earth go beyond diamonds, however. Why not add a sprinkling of color to your wedding band or engagement ring by including ethically sourced emeralds or sapphires? You’ll also find lovely gifts for your wedding party. How about Brilliant Earth’s limited edition gold pendant, made from certified fair-trade gold, as a striking gift for the man in your life?

Speaking of gold: You probably haven’t given much thought to where the precious metals used in jewelry comes from…but Brilliant Earth has. As part of their commitment to environmental responsibility, they only use recycled metals in their pieces. In fact, they’ll even recycle your own gold or platinum, and credit your Brilliant Earth purchase (based on current metal prices). If you’re looking for 14k rose gold or 950 palladium—just ask!

Brilliant Earth donates a portion of their proceeds to African relief. And for your peace of mind, all jewelry includes a Certificate of Origin and a 30-day exchange or return guarantee.

This is jewelry that appeals to both the eye and the heart… Brilliant!
