A Beginner's Guide To Benchmark, An Eco-Friendly Brand

You’re engaged to your soulmate, and it’s nearly time to walk down the aisle. Many people fear choosing their wedding band, but it can actually be fun! It’s a very special occasion, so it’s natural that you want to find the perfect jewelry to symbolize your love. The good news is that the process is much easier with the help of an expert.

Galloway and Moseley, Inc. Sumter, SC

At Galloway & Moseley, we work with a wide selection of the best designers when it comes to bridal jewelry. Today, we’re going to talk about Benchmark, a North American brand that revolutionized the jewelry industry by keeping environmental concerns in mind with  their pieces. Benchmark jewelry is known for creativity and durability, with gorgeous options for both men and women. Enjoy our guide!

Where is Benchmark jewelry made?
 

For over 50 years, Benchmark has been producing intricate jewelry with the finest craftsmanship. They primarily use gold and platinum. Founded in 1973 by Tom Tosyali, the brand’s intention is to craft wedding bands with sophisticated designs and innovative styles. They began manufacturing watches in their first factory in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.  Their production includes a six-step quality control process to guarantee your piece will last a lifetime.
This high quality has made them one of the most important, well respected names in the industry. Not only that, but they also use cutting edge technology in their products. They are very committed to building a legacy with integrity and trust. One of their biggest priorities is to reduce environmental impact during the production of their pieces. They also work to return time and money to their local community.

Galloway and Moseley, Inc. Sumter, SC

What’s so special about Benchmark?
 

Their eye for bridal jewelry enables them to create incredibly  creative designs. This unparalleled creativity makes them one of the most stylish brands on the market. Durability is among the most important values for Benchmark, and they promote that by using recycled materials!

The reason is simple: they discovered that the process of mining gold is linked to environmental devastation. In order to reduce those negative impacts, they decided to reduce the demand for newly mined metals.

All of these details don’t go unnoticed, and every step is carefully planned to cause the least negative impact possible. In short, all rings are produced with existing precious metals. Every piece has a Lifetime Guarantee, allowing you to resize your band when needed.

Is Benchmark jewelry legit?

In order to keep the business running for so long, they had to set very high standards to choose the best recycled metals available to work with. If you’re wondering if they’re legit, the answer is: yes! They work with real gold, platinum and palladium. 

The most popular choice for wedding bands is gold, due to its resistance to tarnish and malleability. Platinum is loved for its natural sparkle, making it a lovely choice for engagement rings and wedding bands alike. One of the rarest metals in the world, palladium is considered a noble metal. This metal is also very resistant to corrosion and wear and tear. 

Choosing your wedding band is a process of self-knowledge, because this accessory will play an important role in your life from now on. It can be used to express your personality and, at the same time, represent your commitment to your partner. Therefore, it’s important that you know exactly what you want with your wedding band.
