Our Process
The A.JAFFE team of designers are based in New York and Italy, and have a history with some of the most renowned jewelers in the world. Each ring design is meticulously drawn so every view of the ring reflects the A.JAFFE standard of excellence in design. Every A.JAFFE design inspiration represents a part of our 125 year heritage.
Ethical Sourcing
The A.JAFFE production facilities have recently been accredited by the Responsible Jewellery Council. The RJC is a not for profit organization which certifies our commitment to ethical sourcing and responsible business practices for diamond, gold, and platinum group metals.
Each diamond used by A.JAFFE is responsibly sourced, following the Kimberley process ensuring that each A.JAFFE piece contains only conflict free diamonds.
Sourcing of our diamonds are through RJC compliant partners mined predominantly from South Africa and Canada.
Our Diamonds
The A.JAFFE diamond selection process goes beyond the 4C’s, as we search for a higher level of fire and sparkle. The most commonly used diamond quality in A.JAFFE settings are G/H VS (or SI upon request), graded to internationally accepted GIA standards.
All diamonds go through a synthetic detection machine to ensure their authenticity and are cut to ideal standards for optimal light performance. Each responsibly sourced diamond is hand set by an A.JAFFE master jeweler, ultimately becoming a sparkling masterpiece.
Natural diamonds graded in accordance with GIA standards for clarity and color that fall in the ideal cut template of light performance is in every A.JAFFE piece we create. Our Lifetime Warranty ensures each piece meets these high standards.
Our Materials
Each A.JAFFE ring is crafted with extraordinary purity by using the finest gold and platinum. All A.JAFFE gold (including 14k is 100 percent nickel-free, which provides extra comfort and eliminates nickel related, allergic reactions or skin irritation.
A.JAFFE’s 18k gold alloy is not only palladium based and nickel free, but has up to 40 percent more palladium than other rings. Even after years of wear and tear, the superior alloy ensures A.JAFFE 18k white gold rings do not tinge yellow once the rhodium wears.
A.JAFFE rose gold rings do not leave dark deposits or smudges from heavy copper content. Platinum rings created by A.JAFFE use the highest standard available by adding 95 percent pure platinum combined with 5 percent iridium or ruthenium, resulting in a platinum ring of the finest quality.

Superior Finishing
Not all jewelry is created equal. Differences in creation, setting and polishing vary widely in our industry. A.JAFFE uses artisanal methods that require intricate skill, such as creating one pave at a time, rather than mass produced methods.
Beginning with more metal, and spending almost twice the time for the casting cycle, this prolonged time and additional metal reduces porosity and increases durability. Unique to A.JAFFE, multiple burnishing stages are included which further compress the metal for a more solid and dense ring. This attention to detail is the A.JAFFE difference. A.JAFFE jewelry undergoes six polishing stages and expends laborious effort in each stage.
