OUR ETHOS
AMJ sees sustainability as a holistic and authentic strategy woven into the core of the brand – a continuous journey of learning and celebrating the collective beauty of what we do and who we are, not shaming or excluding ourselves or others.
A 3-Phase Approach
LOVINGLY & LOCALLY PRODUCED
100% of our production happens inside a one-mile radius within our beloved Center City Philadelphia neighborhood. This vastly reduces the carbon footprint of our supply chain.
Each piece starts at our Walnut Street studio, where we hand-select a gemstone, draw a sketch, then bring it to life as a carved wax or digital 3D model.
Then, it's cast in recycled metal on Jeweler's Row, where we've proudly been working with the same family-owned businesses for over a decade. Recently certified in fair-mined gold, you can now request this option when your piece is made-to-order.
Back at the studio, each piece is carefully finished by our small team of expert jewelers, then brought into what we lovingly call “The Cave,” our flagship shop located in the heart of Philadelphia.
SUSTAINABLY PACKAGED & SHIPPED
Although our jewels are made to last a lifetime, we're happy to announce that our new packaging & shipping materials have already, 'been there, done that.'
All our packaging – from jewelry boxes, protective sateen baggies, and shopping bags to business cards, paper products, and shipping materials – are made from 90-100% post-consumer recycled fiber.
We hope they enjoy their lavish new life housing your AMJ bling!
OUR GOAL IS TO BE
