About Amanda Rees Jewels
Amanda Rees is a private jeweler who crafts everyday heirlooms. With a background that combines analytical rigor and emotional storytelling, Amanda brings a blend of strategy and sentiment to her work — each piece is inspired by evolution, identity, and joy.
Amanda grew up surrounded by fine art, music, antiquities and jewelry in London, Washington, D.C. and NYC. Her creative spirit was shaped through years of classical study in cello, piano, and voice — nurtured by parents who encouraged discipline and imagination.
Her love of jewelry started early, guided by her obsession with her mother’s collection and her father’s own passion for the decorative arts. Her father sourced Ancient Greek coins circa 360-140 BC and collaborated with his jeweler Maurice in the NYC Diamond District to create custom necklaces, earrings and brooches for Amanda’s beloved late mother.
Each heirloom is handcrafted in NYC by two master artisans from Turkey and Syria that have 90 years of combined experience. All pieces are thoughtfully sourced and designed by Amanda.
