About

Our Story

Aghavni (AGVI) was founded with the mission to bridge the beauty of Armenian culture with the world. Our creations are designed to highlight the values cherished by those who wear them — whether it’s the language they speak, the history they hold, or the homeland they cherish. 

It is an honor to be trusted with your story. We promise to never take that for granted and celebrate this privilege through every piece we make.

Donations

With preserving our culture at the heart of our mission, Aghavni is honored to contribute 10% of the proceeds from every purchase to Armenian non-profits each month. From providing aid to refugees from Artsakh to helping house women and children escaping domestic violence, we thank you for helping us contribute to something bigger than all of us.

With your help, we will always use our platform to put a smile on the faces of those who shop with us — and those who could really use a smile.

Our Name

Dedicated to honoring our roots, we chose the name Aghavni to pay tribute to the founder’s grandmother — the woman who ignited her passion for jewelry from a young age. 

Aghavni (ā-ghāv-nee) translates from Armenian to ‘bird of peace,’ symbolizing grace and tranquility.

Production

As a business, we are constantly reminded of what truly matters in building a meaningful community — our customers, staff, vendors, and makers.

Intentional design, quality materials, and ethical production methods are principles that guide us in crafting each of our modern heirlooms.
