Throughout the pandemic, we’ve had the chance to grow closer and stronger connections with our friends and loved ones. Connections with other people have been some of the only things we can really hang onto when many of us are out of work, lost, and unsure of what the future will look like. That’s why we wanted to do a special Amici relaunch. This past year has proven that we need to hold our friends and family close, and our Amici Collection was made for that. Each intricate, handmade bracelet is designed to commemorate the friendship between you and your...

This Pride Month, we are beyond thrilled to be launching our special Spectrum Collection. Each item from this collection is handmade, so no two bracelets are the same - just like you. Pride is all about being different, being unique, and finding unity in our differences. We wanted this collection to represent exactly that.   Why are Rainbows So Special? In many cultures, rainbows have been an ancient symbol of hope. In Christian scripture, a rainbow was sent to Noah after the great flood as an indication that they didn’t have to be afraid of drowning anymore - they could live and...

We’ve been overwhelmed with the amazing name suggestions we’ve received for our special NOGU turtle from the Sea Turtle Conservancy! We hadn’t done anything like this before, so we didn’t know what to expect. Needless to say, the creativity amongst all of you exceeded our wildest expectations (and then some). Once we started receiving name submissions, we realized how tough it would be to pick one name for our turtle. But our team did our best, looking for a name that represents NOGU and also honors the precious turtle we’re sponsoring. Though it was hard, we’re definitely overjoyed with our decision....

Originally invented in 1975 by two New York inventors, mood rings quickly became a popular fashion trend. And even to this day, mood rings are relevant - even though they’re not quite what they say they are. When we look back on our childhoods, nearly all of us at NOGU remember wearing mood rings and comparing them with our friends. We remember the magic and mystery associated with them, and we felt like the rings were telling us something profound about ourselves. Introducing NOGU’s new Mood Stone Rings - a modern and minimalist twist on the colorful jewelry we loved...

Since the start of the pandemic, our small team at NOGU has been trying to make the best of what we’ve been given - which has fortunately been easy to do thanks to your support. While we’ve thoroughly enjoyed launching new products, we’ve been evaluating the products we already have and experimenting with them, trying to reinvent and reconfigure our bestsellers. And we’ve come to a major realization. Our Mermaid Glass necklaces have had a hidden secret all this time. Even though they do a great job of being necklaces, they can do so much more. We were overjoyed when...

Father’s Day is coming up, and while we love our dads (or the special man/men in your life if you don’t have a dad) more than anything, buying for them can be a challenge. Undoubtedly, there exists something called “the dad code.” We don’t quite know what it is, but we can identify it when we see it - dads unnaturally love the free mint bowl at restaurants, they always grunt when they sit down, and they consistently tell us they’d rather not get any gifts. Granted, we love our dads and our father figures. We’re always hoping to make...

The small team behind NOGU firmly believes that life’s too short for meaningless jewelry. That’s why we’re constantly pushing the boundaries of what makes jewelry jewelry, and our handmade Firefly Glass collection is no exception. Our Firefly Glass bracelets, necklaces, and earrings are the upgraded, luxury version of the glow-in-the-dark jewelry you enjoyed as a kid (because there’s no age limit on cool things, tbh). Even when they’re uncharged, they sparkle in the daylight like diamonds. But don’t get us wrong - they sparkle something crazy in the nighttime after you charge them.Because our Firefly Glass collection is so different, it...

Time and time again, we’ve partnered up with meaningful charities and causes - and our new fair trade Himalaya collection is no different. Each glass bead bracelet is carefully handmade by women artisans in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal; no two bracelets are identical, and many of our styles have very little stock. Where today’s western world places importance on modern, clean, fast-paced beauty, the Himalaya collection highlights the beauty in the unique, in the rustic imperfections. This collection isn’t about bulk manufacturing. To the Nepali people, there is no greater beauty than the authentic, ancient, traditional culture woven into...

In honor of Earth Day we wanted to show you the incredible impact that our partnership with Take 3 has had on our planet.
