Beverly Hills, Calif.—Jewelry designer Rhonda Faber Green is getting into the environmental act with the launch of a new line of eco-friendly jewelry.

The Green for Green collection will be available at fine retailers, with a portion of the proceeds going to The Alliance for Climate Protection, the environmental group chaired by former Vice President Al Gore.

The Green for Green collection consists of two pendants and a lapel pin.

The All Green pendant is an 18-karat white gold necklace with gray rhodium and tsavorite that retails for $1,245.

The White and Green Pendant is also 18-karat white gold with white diamonds, tsavorite and set in gray rhodium, with a suggested retail price of $1,395.

The lapel pin retails for $625 with 18-karat white gold, gray rhodium and tsavorite.

"Heal the Earth" is inscribed on the back of each of the pieces, which are not treated with chemicals and are made using recycled materials.

"Just as the stones I use in my jewelry are precious, the world in which we live is equally precious," Green said. "I want this collection to act as a constant reminder of just how delicate our earth and natural environment really is."

The collection will debut at the JA New York Show in March.
