MOLTEN’S ETHICS AND FAIRTRADE GOLD
Molten Wedding Rings used ‘Eco’ recycled gold and platinum as standard and are proud to be able to also offer the whole range in yellow and white Fairtrade Gold.
Eco and recycled gold uses gold that has been bought in the form of scrap from market sectors such as the jewellery, giftware, medical and electronics industries. This means that the gold has not been newly mind eliminating some of the worries around mining practices and the environmental and human impact of these.
Erin Cox is proud to be registered as a Fairtrade Gold licensee (one of less than 50 in the UK). This means that we are able to craft all of our rings with Fairtrade gold upon request. Pieces made using Fairtrade Gold will bear the instantly recognisable Fairtrade logo alongside the hallmark inside each ring. Choosing Fairtrade for your wedding ring means that you are supporting miners and their communities. You can read more about Fairtrade here.
We hope in the future that all of our wedding rings will be made using Fairtrade Gold.
