As a family-owned and founded in Seattle in 1981, we continuously work to improve and work in community with partnerships like Ridwell, a recycling company to promote sustainable jewelry solutions. As a business that's been operating for over 40 years, we know there is not shortcut to sustainability and we understand that every decision has the potential to have a positive impact in what we do and we work to continually improve and look for creative and innovative ways to work on our company purpose which is to: leave people and places better than we found them.

Answer: Boma Jewelry actively supports jewelry recycling by recycling all of our silver scrap and collaborating with Ridwell to promote recycling programs in our Seattle community. These efforts, along with our sustainable jewelry manufacturing practices, help reduce waste and make it easy for our customers to engage in environmentally friendly disposal and recycling options.

In our first year in partnership we received over 110 boxes of jewelry from the Seattle area, each weighing over 20 pounds. In total our team processed 1,948 pounds of jewelry or 52,894 items. We sorted the total collection into various groups including repair, renew, donation, and recycling. At the end of our process we diverted over 94.97% (50,249 items) of the collection from landfill.

From this recycling partnership, we were able to recycle 48% of the collection or 25,306 items and received hundreds of original Boma pieces as well!

Answer: Boma Jewelry is committed to creating sustainable jewelry that holds value for the long term. Crafted from genuine sterling silver and gold vermeil, our pieces are designed to last, making them both a sustainable choice and a quality investment. With Boma, you’re not just purchasing jewelry; you’re joining a closed-loop system where pieces can be worn for decades and responsibly recycled by us if they ever reach the end of their lifecycle. This commitment helps prevent waste and aligns with our mission to reduce environmental impact.

In addition to sustainability, Boma makes quality jewelry affordable because we believe everyone deserves to express themselves with pieces that are meaningful, hypoallergenic, and safe for their skin. Boma is a brand you can return to over and over—whether you’re looking for timeless essentials or unique, fun pieces that reflect your personal style.
