A WORD FROM THE CEO
From the inception, not only did we fanatically seek women from diverse backgrounds that were in troubled circumstances, but also implemented a no waste action plan. Our desire to improve the lives of those around us led to a program that we call “Life of Meaning”. In essence, “Life of Meaning” allows us to teach and train a lasting skillset that can support a person for a lifetime and allow us to pass along techniques that will preserve the artistry and craftsmanship and prevent it from becoming a lost art. We believe that our diversity and inclusion has fostered our collaborative culture which fuels our innovation and ability to disrupt. I am proud that every piece is traced back to the artisanal hands of our amazing team and not traced back to a factory. We carefully select the finest materials, partners, and exotic objects to create pieces that deliver a distinctive style. Each piece is a collection of tradition, stories, and passion and was made with meaning. When you wear an Armenta piece you are wearing the story of all the artisanal hands that crafted the piece just for you. Wear the story of many and weave your journey into the fabric of life.
