New Far Fetched Added

I love Far Fetched for different reasons, one of them being that their jewelry is a superb value. Whimsical animal and inspirational designs coupled with outstanding craftsmanship and top of the line metals, including .925 silver. All at affordable prices.

Another reason to love Far Fetched jewelry is for their work ethics. Their jewelry is designed in California, and produced in Taxco, Mexico by trained artisans in a cottage industry setting. As a member of the Fair Trade Federation, Far Fetched wants the people who create their jewelry to be treated and compensated fairly.

This makes for guilt-free shopping on different levels.

We've added several animal lover jewelry pieces from the Far Fetched line, including:

• Starlight Cat Earrings
• Playful Cat Pin
• Playful Cat Earrings
• Dog is Love Pin
• Flying Pig Earrings
  

Happy shopping. :)

Labor Day and Fair Trade Accessories

Finding affordable, well-made jewelry, handbags and other accessories that are made in the United States is tougher than it used to be. Yet some of the companies we are proud to work with, manufacturer their work right here - companies like Sienna Sky, Wild Bryde, and some Kirks Folly.

It's important to us that the US-based companies we work with, who do part or all of their manufacturing overseas, use fair labor practices. Some of these companies, like Far Fetched, are members of the Fair Trade Federation, an organization working towards equitable trading partnerships.

I hope you're enjoying your Labor Day!
