We're here to do good, not just look good.
nunchi is a Korean concept that describes one's innate awareness of and connection to society. For us, sustainability is threefold. It means community, change, and equity for all.

Recycled Metals Only
All our fine jewelry is made from "old" gold and silver, melted down from scraps and leftovers. What others trash, we convert to treasure.
Ethical Sourcing
The vendors and suppliers we work with are internally vetted and audited. Mining-free and conflict-free is our motto.
Low Waste Movement
Everything from production to packaging is designed to minimize waste and impact to the environment.
Let's Redefine Luxury
The luxury industry has ignored and used women of color as marketing ploys for far too long. We are not tokens and we defy traditional standards. As women of color with immigrant roots, our core values guide both our mission and vision for nunchi.
Luxury should be diversely represented. Luxury should be sustainable. Luxury should be purposeful.
nunchi not only strives for these ideals, it is a product of them.
