18K Yellow Gold Chocó Fair Trade Pendant
This Brilliant Earth two-sided pendant is made from one of the first truly fair trade sources of gold from Oro Verde, responsibly harvested from cooperatives in the Chocó region in Colombia, South America.
One side is adorned with a pre-Colombian petroglyph pattern, inspired by the region where the gold is harvested, while the other side glimmers with a rough-hewn hand-hammered finish. This exclusive pendant is produced in limited quantities due to limited availability of fair trade gold.
In addition to paying a fair wage, the fair trade gold cooperatives ensure the use of sustainable environmental practices, restore ecosystems damaged by other mining companies, and promote the well-being of the local community.
($350.00)
