How does one rate the value behind ethically mined stones,
or for that matter, products that one purchases for lifestyles, whether it be
food or clothing? The jewellery industry
is held under a huge loupe (lol)
while other industries can filter/sell whatever they want with no regard to the
outcome. IE: sweatshops, pink slime,
etc. When will the jewellery retailer
have the backing to show that a quality, ethical product is available at your
locally owned jewellery store?
The local person also has ownership over whom they deal
with. The local owner will have to look into the consumers eyes when they
sell a product. The better the
product, the easier it is to look into there eyes. I have always had
this motto. I will not lie, cheat or steal and I will not tolerate those
that do. With this motto in mind, I’ve been able to look into the mirror
and be happy with who is looking back. I have seen too many people
embarrassed by the products they carry. You see it in every large market
department store and those that have lost control of what they are giving to
their customers.
Humor me Todd and let me know your thoughts on this pattern
(borderline rant) on my end. ENJOYING THE BLOG.
My response tomorrow…
