Amano Studio is a small, woman owned jewelry brand and production studio based in Sonoma California in the Valley of the Moon. Founder and designer, Seana Pedelaborde, is a 23 year veteran of the fashion and gift market. Amano (by hand in Spanish) began as a Fair Trade Mexican import company. Today Amano Studio, handcrafted in California brand is a trend driven, affordable line of fashion jewelry with an emphasis on quality materials, on-trend design and five star customer service. We draw inspiration from vintage fashion, the night sky and the beauty of the California landscape. Our business manifesto is as follows: 1. People before profit, pay people a living wage even if the market would allow otherwise, allow people to care for their families and themselves by providing ample paid time off, share the profits with those that helped to create them. 2. Buy American, the vast majority of our materials are made in the US by small, family owned manufacturers. Our manufacturing base is dying in the US, let's keep it alive! 3. Love your Mother Earth, we are striving for a zero waste work place and we reuse EVERYTHING! We use compostable "plastic" bags made of plant material and biodegradable packaging made of recycled papers. 4. Give Back, we support our local schools and are major contributors to our local homeless shelter.
