The Somerset Wildlife Trust
Atelier Laibach is directly supporting the re-naturing of former peat extraction areas of the Somerset Levels. Environmentally, this is a particularly relevant project for Atelier Laibach to support. Re-naturing plays a vital role in helping to patch up the visible and micro-biolological damage caused by the extraction industry (in the jewellery industry most notably the unnecessary mining of gold). The sale of pieces made by Kerstin Laibach based on stones gathered in this region, plus wedding and partnership rings made for Somerset couples, directly benefits this important work of Somerset Wildlife Trust.

RESOURCES WE LIKE

Everything Wedding Rings
... A Handy Guide Before you Buy.
Everything Wedding Rings is an extremely well-informing resource for everything you need to know about wedding rings. Although it focusses on partnership rings in principle, it provides extensive but easily absorbed information about types of metals and other materials used for jewellery in general. It also easily guides you through the pros and cons of jewels and treatments you might expect to find applied to jewellery. Everything Wedding Rings strongly focusses on the ethical aspects when choosing your ring ... and what is on offer. (There is also a beautifully written page describing Kerstin Laibach's ethical wedding and partnership rings.)
We highly recommend this informative resource.
