About Us

About the Founder and Creative Director

Amma was born from the vision of Founder and Creative Director Maria, whose Greek roots and heritage are central to the brand’s identity. With a background in fashion and years spent working with leading jewelry houses, Maria sought to create something deeply personal: where beauty, history, and craftsmanship converge. Inspired by the history, culture, colors, and natural landscapes of Greece, Amma tells stories through jewelry. Designed in New York City and handcrafted in Athens, each piece honors tradition while embracing a modern, elevated aesthetic. More than adornment, Amma is a celebration of origin, artistry, and timeless expression.

Crafted with Purpose, Rooted in Tradition

Our jewelry is sustainably made in Athens, Greece, using recycled sterling silver and thick layers of 24k gold vermeil. Each piece is handcrafted by local artisans using time-honored techniques passed down through generations. We honor heritage while embracing conscious creation, merging age-old craftsmanship with modern, ethical practices. The result is timeless jewelry with a soul, designed to be worn, loved, and passed on.
