The Baltic Sea is a sensitive and unique marine area that requires protection from all of us. The Finnish family company Sirokoru has taken on this challenge by creating stunning ecosilver jewelry that not only enhances beauty but also supports the preservation of the Baltic Sea.
Sirokoru is a fourth-generation family business that produces high-quality silver, bronze, and gold jewelry in its workshop in Kaarina. The jewelry designer, Matti Hyvärinen, is one of Finland’s most awarded jewelry artists. Hyvärinen has developed an ecological silver alloy, ecosilver which eliminates the need for hazardous chemicals in the jewelry-making process.
Sirokoru’s Eco-Act-silver is an environmentally friendly solution that surpasses traditional silver in quality and durability. The silver content in ecosilver is higher than typically used in Finnish silver products.
Baltic Sea Jewelry made from ecosilver - an environmentally friendly choice
Sirokoru’s Eco-Act-silver is an environmentally friendly solution that surpasses traditional silver in quality and durability. The silver content in ecosilver is higher than typically used in Finnish silver products.
Ecosilver is made from recycled silver. According to Sirokoru, silver can be recycled almost endlessly. The recycled silver used by Sirokoru comes from their accumulated stocks and materials over the years.
Producing ecosilver is more challenging than traditional silver because other metals must be added to it, as silver is a very soft metal. Ecosilver is more ecological, purer, and whiter than usually used silver.
Here, a silver Lapis lazuli with a handmade chain is being crafted by the skilled hands of goldsmith Tomi.
Sirokoru’s Baltic Sea Jewelry collection
The Baltic Sea collection is special because it’s made from ecosilver. The inspiration for the jewelry comes from our unique archipelago. A delightful example of archipelago-themed jewelry is the Ringed Seal pendant or the stunning Dragonfly earrings. According to Sirokoru, their most popular Baltic Sea jewelry includes all shell-themed jewelry, dragonflies, and anchors for men. For every Baltic Sea jewelry item sold, 5% is donated to the John Nurminen Foundation. They have donated thousands of euros annually.
The John Nurminen Foundation is a renowned defender of the Baltic Sea, taking concrete actions to reduce the burden on the sea, increasing understanding of the Baltic Sea’s condition, and influencing decision-makers.
A perfect gift choice with meaning. When you choose Sirokoru’s Baltic Sea jewelry, you do not only get a beautiful and high-quality piece - you also help protect the delicate ecosystem of the Baltic Sea. Every purchase is a small step towards a cleaner future.
