"This new venture is incredibly special to me, because it combines elements of my culture, my beliefs, and one of my passions - fine jewelry," shared Founder Carolyn Rafaelian . "Metal Alchemist jewelry is the first of its kind in so many ways - from the quality of the precious metals to our proprietary refining and bonding processes that we do in-house, right here in Rhode Island , to working with ancient alchemical techniques in a whole new way. We knew partnering with REEDS was the right decision for this launch because they also value quality, craftsmanship and customer experience."

Each piece of jewelry from Metal Alchemist is designed using techniques from ancient alchemy in a revolutionary way. The highest quality precious metals go through a proprietary weeks-long process to maintain the quality and integrity of each metal. This is all done by master metalsmiths in-house in their Rhode Island factories, ensuring the purity from start to finish. Because each piece is alchemically pure, the moment you put it on, it immediately begins interacting with you, getting to know you, and harmonizing with you through sharing the benefits of each precious metal.

"Carolyn's new brand is launching in an extraordinary way because it is based on the principles of alchemy.
