AMAMI Filigree Jewelry
This Philippine-based jewelry online store started with the dream of helping a local craftsman stay in the Philippines to continue working on his craft. Years later, AMAMI has now created livelihood opportunities for Filipino craftsmen to create beautiful pieces of filigree jewelry. Creating Filipino filigree jewelry is a part of our Filipino heritage that our pre-Hispanic ancestors have perfected. They melt and hammer down blocks of gold or silver into delicate threads to create intricate lace-like jewelry patterns. AMAMI offers necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings that showcase this unique Filipino craftsmanship.
