Nowa stands for No Waste.

00:00:03.032 --> 00:00:09.537
We create jewelry by using gold and silver extracted directly from old phones.

00:00:09.538 --> 00:00:14.249
Phones, our partner Closing the Loop saves from e-waste dumps in Africa.

00:00:15.308 --> 00:00:18.798
Phones play a significant role in our daily lives.

00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:20.800
They often end up here...

00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:22.800
Or here.

00:00:22.801 --> 00:00:26.919
However, this could also mark the beginning of something new.

00:00:35.819 --> 00:00:39.911
It only takes 40 mobile phones to extract 1 gram of gold.

00:00:40.061 --> 00:00:46.499
So your old phone contains all the ingredients needed to create sustainable jewelry!

00:00:47.933 --> 00:00:50.704
Nowa sees the beauty in waste.

00:00:51.750 --> 00:01:00.959
70% of all our re-used mobile phones eventually end up in developing countries where they cannot be recycled properly.

00:01:01.542 --> 00:01:07.256
Your purchase funds the collection and recycling of waste phones in Africa.

00:01:07.278 --> 00:01:14.683
You get a beautiful piece of jewelry, and you’re able to contribute to less e-waste worldwide.

00:01:14.870 --> 00:01:25.227
Kickstarter is a great way for us to launch the world’s first jewelry line created by using gold and silver extracted directly from old phones.

00:01:25.600 --> 00:01:32.858
We will use this money for our production, marketing costs, and creating a new circular collection.

00:01:32.858 --> 00:01:37.825
