About us

Fashion is a statement of social and political values, economical strata, and technological progress. It allows us to express our values wherever we are and without the need for permission.

Motti and I have been involved in the fashion world as designers and developers for many years. And we feel that it is our responsibility to declare with our creations that we do not tolerate the use of animals as products. It is vital to set this example for the fashion world.  We create high fashion jewelry, belts, and handbags in our studio in Mid Manhattan, proving that it is possible to create elegant fashion that is purely vegan.

We believe in the welfare of all living beings. We use materials that are 100% vegan, aesthetically pleasing, friendly to the environment, and produced in countries that respect the welfare of their workers and enforce labor laws. The materials we use are expensive, but we prefer to pay more for our materials than encourage the oppression of workers around the world. Even our packaging is made in the USA out of 100% recycled materials.

The metals we use are not plated because the plating process is harmful to workers and the environment.

Our products are high quality and made to last. Our style is classically elegant and timeless -- so that you can wear our designs now and also in ten years. This offers a considerable economic and environmental advantage. The sensuous recycled fabric we use is highly durable. And since our metal pieces are not plated, the passage of time enhances their rich look.

We sell our products through the Internet and at vegan festivals and conferences. In that way, our costumers pay half of the price they would have had to pay if they were purchasing them in stores.
