Nachhaltige Halsketten für jeden Stil
Our sustainable necklaces are a symbol of clean lines and powerful design. Whether you wear them long or short, with or without a pendant, they effortlessly integrate into your style, whether for everyday wear or special occasions.
All our necklaces are made from recycled gold or recycled sterling silver – they are part of our mission to combine beauty and responsibility. Make a statement for mindfulness, transparency, and sustainable luxury.
You wonder what makes our necklaces sustainable? On the one hand, it is the precious metals we use to make our jewelry. We use only recycled gold and recycled silver as well as lab-grown diamonds, thereby avoiding the extraction of new resources. On the other hand, it is the thoughtful and transparent choice of our partners in the production of our necklaces, which you can track at any time. We also stand for durable quality and precise craftsmanship. Choose your sustainable necklace and wear jewelry that not everyone has and that is not only stylish but also has a positive impact on our world.

More jewelry ideas
Make your sustainable necklace something unique by combining it with one or more of our beautiful pendant charms. All pendants, like our necklaces, are made from recycled precious metals and synthetic diamonds, making them perfect for personalizing your necklace. Whether you prefer, for example, an engraved coin, a letter, or one of our especially symbolic designs – choose a pendant charm as the keeper of your story and wear it close to your heart. You can also combine several different pendant charms on one chain to create an especially unique look. We are confident you will find your jewelry match that looks beautiful and also reflects you as well as your values and beliefs.
It can always happen that your favorite necklace breaks – especially when you wear particularly delicate necklaces. Even if it is made of high-quality recycled gold or sterling silver, it is designed to break under strong tension to avoid injuring you. If your necklace does break, we are happy to repair it for you if possible or refashion it, because our goal is a circular economy. As long as your necklace is made of solid, high-quality materials, it can usually be easily fixed. Feel free to check out our individual jewelry services. There are also ways you can sometimes repair your necklace yourself. Visit our journal for more information.
Even though we, as a sustainable company, distance ourselves from trends, we find chain layering to be an art form that can be wonderfully implemented with already existing necklaces and one that we find hard to get enough of: you simply wear several necklaces and chain pendants at the same time and combine them into very individual compositions. You can mix different lengths of chains and also different metals. We also like the mix of delicate chains and large-link necklaces that create the frame for a special chain pendant. If you need consultation, feel free to contact us. We will definitely find the combination of jewelry pieces that suits you best.
Frequently Asked Questions about Sustainable Necklaces
What makes Maren's necklaces sustainable?
At Maren Jewellery, we pursue a holistic sustainability approach that goes far beyond just material selection. Our goal is to create sustainable necklaces that are made in harmony with nature while meeting the highest aesthetic standards. To achieve this, we work exclusively with recycled precious metals and lab-grown diamonds—materials that are valuable, resource-efficient, and traceable. Our necklaces are produced locally in Germany, and each piece is made to order to avoid overproduction, unnecessary storage, and long transport routes. Every necklace is fully recyclable and part of our vision for a future circular economy. Just as important as the materials are the people behind them: we only work with partners who guarantee fair working conditions and share our values of transparency, responsibility, and mindfulness. Our necklace designs are crafted with meticulous handwork, are durable, high-quality, and consciously minimalist—created to accompany you for a long time. We are also fully committed to sustainability when it comes to packaging: we ship our necklaces completely plastic-free, without animal products, and with the lowest possible ecological footprint. Additionally, we support the Chooose climate initiative and offset 100 kg of CO₂ for every piece of jewelry made. This way, every sustainable necklace becomes not just a piece of jewelry, but an active contribution to a better future.
How do I find the right chain length?
The perfect length of your necklace depends on your preferences. An optimally fitting necklace not only accentuates your silhouette but also adds a special touch of elegance to your look. Short, finely crafted necklaces (42 cm) shimmer right at the collarbone and appear especially elegant and feminine. Medium-length sustainable necklaces (50 cm) are stylish all-rounders that effortlessly fit into any modern or classic look. Long necklaces (60 cm) give your outfit a luxurious, gently elongating line and harmonize exquisitely with high-quality blouses or fine knitwear.
How do I best care for sustainable necklaces?
Necklaces require particularly careful cleaning as dirt and deposits can easily get trapped between the fine links. Unlike smooth jewelry pieces like rings or bangles, which can usually be wiped clean easily, necklaces require more thorough and gentle care. This is especially true for models with many gaps—such as bead chains or link chains—which lose their brilliance more quickly due to cosmetics, sweat, or dust. To preserve your necklace's natural shine in the long term, you can easily clean it yourself with our sustainable jewelry care set or use our professional ReFresh Service. Both methods provide gentle, deep cleaning that brings your necklace back to a sparkle without stressing the delicate material.
