What Gabrielle Chanel at the time had no idea in what quantities costume jewellery for several decades would depend in fast fashion chains. There is hardly anything more beautiful than a piece of jewellery for eternity. A real favorite piece that can tell a story like this Eco jewellery.

Eco jewellery favorites from Inheels, Folkdays and Umiwi

Inheels

The sustainable fashion and jewellery label was launched in 2012 in Tokyo. After the resounding success and the great demand in the first year a Inheels-branch was opened in London a year later. Inheels produces fair trade fashion from Nepal and India and places great importance on the selection of materials. Especially great, for me the jewellery line is, derived from the remains of disarmed landmines and bomb parts from Cambodia.
