Eco friendly, Sustainable Studio! A work in progress.

Reducing hazardous materials

I was taught to use silica based polishing compounds. As I was researching sustainable studio, I found a vegetable based compound. It was a WIN-WIN. The vegetable based compound provides as good and in many situations a better polish than the silica based compounds. More research needs to be conducted to see what other eco friendly improvements we can incorporate into our studio.

We use LUXI polishing compounds that are silica-free. Because it is silica-free and contains no hazardous material, this compound is safer to use. In addition, its special structure and composition (vegetable fat-based) allow use to use less; the compound stays in place on our buff(s), minimizes metal loss in process, and is easy to clean up—all while producing an amazing finish.

Recycled cloth

We no longer use paper towels in the studio. To buff our pieces, I use my husband’s old t-shirts. They’re the best!


Use of cloth is the greener option. ... all for a single use, we find that the paper towels and napkins are about twice as energy-intensive and create more greenhouse gases overall.

Vegetarian eventualy vegan

I use beeswax as a lubricant for our piercing. We are researching vegan alternatives!

Reusable water bottles

Our studio contains re-usable water bottles. Fewer  bottles will b we sent to landfills. 

Reusable straws

We have metal and  bamboo straws in the studio for drawing water. It’s not only healthier for the environment, but it's also a cost-effective solution. 

Reducing energy consumption - Solar lighting

In an effort to reduce strain on electrical usage, the studio has been outfitted with solar tube lighting.  We make a conscious effort to unplug electric devices when not in use. 

Greener studio

We‘re working towards a greener studio. So we are researching eco friendly opportunities for our studio!


If you have a suggestion, please send it to me at doreen@JewelrybyJames.com

Reusable cloth bags

When we travel, we make an effort to use reu cloth bags.
