What is recycled silver?

At Myleti Jewellery, we believe that beauty shouldn’t come at the expense of the planet. That’s why we’re proud to use recycled sterling silver in our pieces — but what exactly does that mean, and why does it matter? 

 

🌿 What Is Recycled Silver?

Recycled silver is real, genuine sterling silver that’s been reclaimed and refined from existing sources — like old jewellery, electronics, and even silverware. Instead of mining new silver from the earth, this process gives existing silver a second life.

Once it’s melted down and purified, recycled silver is chemically identical to newly mined silver — just a lot kinder to the planet.

 

💧 Why Recycled Silver Is Better for the Planet

Mining silver can be a resource-heavy process, using vast amounts of water and energy while disturbing natural landscapes. By choosing recycled silver, we help reduce the demand for new mining and lower our environmental footprint.

 

Every Myleti piece made from recycled silver helps:

🌍 Reduce waste – old silver items get transformed instead of ending up in landfill.

⚡ Save energy – refining existing silver uses far less energy than mining.

💨 Cut carbon emissions – fewer mining operations mean less pollution and greenhouse gases.

Small choices really do add up — especially when we all make them together.

Does Recycled Silver Look or Feel Different?

Not at all! Recycled silver is identical in quality and purity to newly mined silver. It’s the same stunning sterling silver you know and love — durable, bright, and timeless. The only difference is that it comes with a story you can feel proud of.

When you wear Myleti Jewellery, you’re not just wearing something beautiful — you’re wearing your values.

 

Sustainable Style, Without Compromise

We believe sustainability shouldn’t mean sacrifice. That’s why every Myleti piece is designed to last — made from quality materials, crafted with care, and designed for everyday elegance.

Choosing recycled silver is a small, meaningful step toward a more sustainable future — and it’s one we can take together.

So next time you choose a Myleti piece, know that you’re choosing more than just jewellery. You’re choosing mindful luxury — beauty with a conscience. 💫
