About Maevean
 

Maevean is a woman-owned and operated local studio whose hand-smithed jewelry reflects the rich history of the city of Salem and other New England towns. 

Fabricated ethically by hand from raw, recycled metal to finished product, we offer a variety of collections with Gothic and Victorian motifs in high-quality, fine metal jewelry. We hope you’ll love wearing our work as much as we love making it!

Company Ethics

At Maevean, we are dedicated to reducing our footprint at every possible turn. We source only recycled metals and collect our scraps, clean them, melt them, and roll them into our own sheet and wire right in our very own studio! A lengthy process, but we believe it’s worth minimizing refinery chemical use.

The majority of gemstones we use are sourced from local wholesalers minutes from our studio. We get information on our stones’ origins, but even with our methods of sourcing, we refuse to purchase any company’s diamonds. Diamond suppliers worldwide have failed to guarantee truly ethically sourced diamonds and we refuse to involve ourselves in that industry. We only make exception cases to use a client’s diamond when they have a history of reasons why they’re using the exact stone in their hands.
