Lead-free and Cadmium-free. Feel free to shower, swim, and sweat - Native Gem pieces are designed to be worn and cherished. But do keep in mind your jewelry will look its best if you apply lotion or perfume prior to wear and pat dry completely after.

Native Gem is named for the earth’s natural gifts: beautiful, rare stones set in metal using ancient techniques and intricate crochet work. The pieces are designed to be worn, and cherished.

By using only hypo-allergenic, lead and cadmium-free metals: 14K gold fill, vermeil and sterling silver, we are filling the gap between cheap throw away lead-based jewelry and ultra-expensive fine jewelry.

Assembly, crafting, and design is completed in Los Angeles with elements of the line that are sourced throughout the world, most notably, the United States, Turkey, Nepal and Brazil. 

Social sustainability is at the center of our mission, and we have taken many initiatives to give back. We have donated to local and international fundraisers such as Adopt the Arts, Save the Children, DAV, The Midnight Mission among others. These practices, especially those that interact with the national quality of life of our Los Angeles community a principle objective.
