Environmental awareness initiatives have been implemented across all Samuel B. sites, from artisan workshops to the head office, to minimize the company's carbon footprint and energy usage. Additionally, all associated suppliers are thoroughly vetted to ensure adherence to the company’s humanitarian and environmental standards. Guaranteeing the integrity of the final product, every piece of Samuel B. jewelry is subjected to an extensive supply chain inspection process. Meticulously examined during manufacturing, the international workshops thoroughly examine each piece before a final quality control examination is conducted in New York.
With the Samuel B. collection, every ethically sourced and hand-selected gemstone, pearl, polished shell, and diamond guarantees a classic piece of jewelry that embodies Samuel’s philosophy, one at a time, one of a kind, each by hand.
