It's not a basket, but it is a catch all!

March 20th, 2008

Okay, we know it isn’t a good thing to get tan in the summer months, but we can’t help spending a bit more time outside in the summer months and sure won’t hate on how much better we look sun-kissed.  With that in mind, there is no better addition to the bit of color you get over the summer than this sweet and simple, Golden Grass Circle Artisan Pendant.  It looks great with a tank and jeans, AND with that dress you’ve spent all spring making sure you fit into!

While we have to admit that we were attracted to this Nugaard line purely based on aesthetics, we were over the moon when we found out how eco-friendly and community-minded they were made!  The golden grass used in Nugaard’s CAMPO collection is a unique type of grass, which grows in the northwest of Brazil, and can only be picked once a year.  The grass is one of the main sources of income for the local communities in area, where weaving techniques used to create decorative ornaments have been passed from generation to generation. 

The extraction of the grass is done in a manner not to harm the environment, and the activity is closely monitored by Brazilian environmental agencies.  The golden grass shapes used in the designs are exclusively hand woven for Nugaard Designs by local artisans in Brazil, and imported to the US, where all the jewelry is produced in Miami, Florida.
