Ana Luisa is a Brooklyn-based e-commerce jewelry brand with a simple, but clear-cut idea that high-quality jewelry shouldn't cost the planet.

We design, craft, and deliver exceptional everyday pieces for everyone, priced fairly, and produced ethically to create a positive impact for both people and the planet.
