Pendant and Hand Fabrication in Ridgewood, NY

Hand fabrication is the oldest and most demanding form of jewelry making — and at AJ’s Jewelry in Ridgewood, it’s a skill we’re proud to offer. Unlike cast pieces, hand-fabricated jewelry is built from raw sheet metal, wire, and tubing, shaped and constructed entirely by hand. The result is a piece that is stronger, denser, and more precisely made than anything produced by a mold.

We specialize in custom pendant design and hand fabrication in yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, and sterling silver. Clients come to us for memorial pendants, religious and cultural pieces, monogram and initial pendants, nature-inspired designs, and entirely original concepts. We can work from your sketch, a reference photo, or a detailed description.

Every hand-fabricated piece begins with a consultation where we discuss design, metal, dimensions, and stone setting if applicable. We provide a quote before work begins and keep you informed throughout the process. The result is a one-of-a-kind piece made exactly the way jewelry was always meant to be made — by hand, with care.
