About Green Jewelry News

Green Jewelry News is an independent publication about fine jewelry and precious metals. We exist for a simple reason: buying and owning jewelry is full of jargon, myths, and marketing, and most people just want a clear, honest explanation.

So we write the guide you wish the counter had handed you: what a karat actually measures, why a well-cut diamond outshines a bigger one, whether platinum is worth the premium, and what "ethical" and "recycled" really mean.

What we cover

• Precious Metals: gold, platinum, silver, karat and fineness, alloys and color.
• Gemstones: diamonds and the 4Cs, lab-grown vs natural, colored stones.
• Buying Guides: engagement rings, reading stamps, what you are paying for.
• Jewelry Care: cleaning, tarnish, and protecting delicate stones.
• Sustainability: recycled metals, conflict-free sourcing, and honest green claims.

Our standards

We aim for accuracy over hype. We ground our explainers in established gemology and the guidance of bodies like the GIA, and we flag figures, such as metal prices and lab-grown discounts, that shift over time. Our guides are general education, not an appraisal or professional advice.

We publish clear, accurate guides from writers, jewelers, and gemologists who know their craft. If that is you, see our Write for Us page.
