Our Story

     Second Life Rings was founded back in 2022 by Spencer, a passionate creative who wanted to offer a different and new look to a staple in the fashion industry. He started this business as a way to create something that gave him enjoyment and purpose that he could share with others. And coming from a family that has project loving minds with entrepreneurial endeavors running through them, it only felt right that he follow in their footsteps. However unlike most individuals involved in the jewelry business, Spencer is 100% self taught and is constantly learning, making mistakes, and enjoying the journey along the way.

 

Our Product

     What most people often overlook is that every single piece ever created has its own individualized history with its own special story. And oftentimes because of this, unfortunately these stories sadly become forgotten. This is because when these pieces come into our possession, they often come with a past that isn't passed on. And while we may to be able to tell their stories how they have been written, we can give them a chance to have a new one.

     In this new chapter in our journey, each new ring created at Second Life Rings is re-brought to life by a unique technique called sand casting. This technique allows each piece to be forged into its new form, where it is done so by melting it down from its first life, molded into its new shape, and hardened to show its new second life. What's left when the process is finished is a unique, different, and beautiful ring that is awaiting for someone like you to bring it in and write its new story for it.

 

Our Impact

     From our products to our packaging we want to be different from the norm. We pride ourselves on delivering beautiful hand made up-cycled rings in environmentally friendly packaging. We don't just do this because we want to. We do this because we truly feel that it is our responsibility to help the planet that we all live on.

     We also know that while our carbon footprint isn't zero, we are aware of the impact we have on the planet and utilize this to make sure that our carbon impact as small as possible. Specifically, we do this in two ways:

  • First by creating our products from recycled pieces. Currently, each new piece is being made from recycled stainless steel or recycled 925 Sterling Silver. What we're doing is transforming those that are old, broken, and forgotten into their a Second Life, a ring. This way, they are given a new purpose, and allows us to make sure that we are not creating any new goods by using other materials to do so. We are simply recreating what's already been made.
  • Second by shipping out our hand made rings 100% eco-friendly curbside recyclable packaging with:
    • Padded mail envelopes. Our envelopes are made from Kraft paper and made in the USA!
    • Shipping labels. Our labels are made from regular white paper that can be recycled and are made in the USA!
    • Paper packaging tape.  And finally, our packaging tape, made from Kraft paper, is now curbside recyclable and also made in the USA!
