COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY
Machete is committed to being ecologically and environmentally responsible by practicing waste reduction in their office and production areas, and their continued effort to ensure their jewelry and accessories are biodegradable and sustainable.

NON-PETROLEUM BASED
All Machete jewelry starts out as thick blocks of cellulose acetate*, which are then cut into smaller sheets and developed into blocks again by mixing the different shades together to create the unique tortoiseshell shades.
* The Italian acetate Machete sources uses is made from cellulose – a natural, renewable material extracting cellulose fibers from cotton and wood pulp to make a transparent paste that can be colored, processed, and molded into different shapes.
