From the ancient world to you

We believe that luxury is defined by quality, care, and the lasting power of fine materials, which means that your jewelry will dazzle for years to come. ⁠All of our pieces are available in a choice of precious metals, from sterling silver to 22K yellow gold. Whichever metal option you choose, your piece of ROMAE jewelry will be created with attention, skill, love, and the best materials available. ⁠We take pride in making quality jewelry with lasting value, because jewelry should be worn and cherished for ages, not a single season.

Your jewelry will arrive with a card providing details about the original piece of ancient jewelry that has inspired our creation, so that you may know its long history.

We care, and not just about the past

ROMAE Jewelry was created by a classical archaeologist and artist who are also mother and daughter. We are a small business, 100% women-owned, and women-run. We operate as a family, so grateful for all of the incredible support we have received, but also hugely aware of our responsibility to support others. ROMAE is committed to social and environmental responsibility, and to giving back in every way we can. ROMAE donates 5% of profits to charitable causes.

We also care about the Classics, the ancient world, and history in general, and want to see these disciplines remain strong within educational institutions, and more accessible to everyone, which is why we support related educational initiatives and student causes. The ancient world belongs to all of us, and it is so incredibly cool. It's our job to keep it alive! In some small way and with our jewelry designs, we hope to help remind the world just how exciting, relevant and relatable the ancient world really is.
