Our Story
Two women, one tide.
Ari Mare started with a mother, a daughter, and a shared refusal to take their jewelry off, even for the water.

Co-founder
Anna
Anna’s love of jewelry is rooted in three generations of her Filipino family’s experience in the jewelry business, long before Ari Mare existed. That heritage shapes her commitment to designing pieces that are made to last, not simply look beautiful on a shelf.

Co-founder
Arianna
Arianna grew up between two coastlines, Rhode Island shorelines in the summer and Charleston harbor the rest of the year, never far from the water. She’s the reason waterproof wasn’t optional. It was the whole starting point.
Why we started
A partnership rooted in heritage.
Anna brought three generations of family experience in the jewelry business. Arianna brought a life spent in and out of the ocean. Ari Mare is where those two worlds meet: jewelry inspired by heritage and made for the water that shaped them both.

How Ari Mare began
From a real problem to a real piece.
- 1
The problem
Arianna kept losing rings and watching chains tarnish during beach days and boat days. Nothing on the market was built to just stay on.

The solution
Anna’s family heritage in the jewelry business met Arianna’s desire for waterproof, tarnish-free pieces, and the first Ari Mare collection was born.

The mission today
Every piece still has to pass the same test: can you wear it into the water and forget it’s there?
The belief behind every piece
Jewelry like second nature.
Ari Mare is the tie between women, generations and the water: jewelry designed to travel through all of it with you.
