And without a doubt, we are related and we are part of the same planet, we are the roots of a whole. The earth is a source of identity, because we can recognize our place in the universe and recognize how we are all connected, giving spiritual meaning to each element of nature.
This is the second blog entry, if you haven't read the first, you still have time, what are you waiting for to meet us? here it is Who are We? Ÿ¤”
We want to share a little about our commitment to the environment and how we highlight and are inspired by nature, in the creation of designs at OLTEM.
Certainly! A small jewelry business that collaborates with indigenous communities can have several positive impacts on the environment. Many indigenous communities have a rich craft tradition, including jewelery making techniques passed down from generation to generation, this may include techniques such as beading, weaving or metal working. In the photo we can see Alicia with her daughter Anyi working in the Okamas Vida.
Small businesses often source their materials locally, available, and environmentally friendly materials, thereby reducing the carbon footprint associated with transportation. You ask yourself, how are you contributing positively to planet Earth when you purchase an accessory from OLTEM LLC?
By supporting small businesses like ours #oltem, you are generating a positive impact on our planet, since the practices used to make each accessory are done in a traditional and handmade way. Our methods often involve minimal environmental impact, because we do not require machinery that is producing toxic waste, such as large CO2 emissions, water pollution due to the use of chemicals or the generation of high percentages of plastics.
Supporting indigenous businesses and small businesses is not only beneficial for local economies and communities, but also for the environment, contributing to sustainability and harmony with nature.
Our small jewelry business is a celebration of the beauty and wonder found in nature. Each piece in our collection is carefully handmade with love and inspired by the elements of the natural world, choosing at the time of design colors representative of water, air, fire, earth, gold and silver, as well as the use of semi-precious stones such as ruby, emerald and tanzanite.
We do not leave aside one of the great treasures of the earth, the raw and organic beauty of semi-precious stones with our Moñitos Tierra collection. Each stone is hand selected for its unique color, texture and energy.
Our collection features delicate handcrafted designs, inspired by flowers from Orquídeas and Tugtu, , to pieces that capture the essence of the beauty of butterflies as they are Bagabaga, Bagabaga Hopps y Bagabaga Necklace.
