We present to you an entirely new floral design: The Island Flower. Drawing inspiration from Andy Warhol's iconic 1964 flower series, the Island Flower is hand-carved in Germany from high-quality garnet. Garnet is believed to revitalize, purify, and balance energy, bringing serenity or passion as appropriate. Historically, garnet has been used as a talisman for protection, symbolizing safe travel and warding off negative energies.
The pendant is set with a brilliant-cut pink tourmaline, which symbolizes joy, emotional healing, and love.
This piece is handmade from 14-karat recycled gold in our Atelier in Amsterdam. All gemstones are natural and hand carved, therefore there may be a slight variation in color, shape, and weight of the product.

All our jewelry is handmade in our Amsterdam atelier. Most of our carvings are hand-carved in our atelier and in Germany. Above all else, we value our community most, our customers, the craftsmen that generously lend us their skill, and everyone else who is involved in this journey. We build lasting relationships, we act with kindness and respect, and value quality of life. All the craftsmen and artisans we work with are compensated fairly.
We only work with people who align with our values of sourcing and crafting and make sure these ethics are lived throughout our supply chain. Where possible we produce locally, but we also highly value our craftsmen who work from a distance. They possess skills that are rare to find and are often tied to remote communities. We take pride in that our collaborations have a direct positive impact on them and their community.
When we first started our business, we aimed to be transparent about our jewelry pricing by providing a price breakdown for each piece. However, due to the constant fluctuations in gold and gemstone prices, it has become challenging to keep detailed cost breakdowns updated on our website.
As a small business with purpose in an industry that is hazy and foggy when it comes to its transparency, we want to lead by example and are committed to bringing transparency to the jewelry industry. If you're interested in receiving a full breakdown of our pricing and cost structure, we’d be happy to email you all the details. Please feel free to contact us at contact@sophiejoanne.com for more information.
