Meghan is an excellent person to connect with: she is leading the way for those of us interested in sustainable and green business practices, and her interest is in the sustainable luxury sphere. She is the owner and founder of C5 Company, where she is using jewelry as the platform by which she seeks to help consumers align their purchasing decisions with their values.

Meghan founded C5 in 2008 after realizing that the jewelry industry was failing conscious consumers. C5 jewelry is fair-trade manufactured from recycled precious metals and only ethically sourced gems, so you can truly feel good about purchasing, gifting or wearing it.

We’ve interviewed Meghan for our 2008 holiday gift guide:

“Like many other consumers today, I appreciate beauty and craftsmanship, and strongly believe that both should be attainable without having to compromise my values.”

Seventeen years ago, Meghan had a peace dove, the symbol of social justice, tattooed on her ankle, as an expression of her commitment to serving others. She now uses C5 Company as well as her new venture, Sulusso, to invites customer to a new model of ecological sensitivity, cultural consciousness, and sustainability.

“I believe that if consumers were aware of the severe negative social and environmental issues associated with fine jewelry, and they were presented with jewelry of comparable beauty, they would purchase the sustainable alternative.”
