ARAO Jewellery

Our Purpose

‘ARAO’ (or ‘araw’) in Filipino directly translates to “sun.” It is also the root word of ‘araw-araw,’ which means “every day.”

ARAO’s sustainable and ethical jewellery showcases the rich hues and bright luster of Golden South Sea pearls. We craft our artisanal pieces with empowering women in mind to allow them to discover their own light within, and let it shine every day.

Bought a pair of pearl earrings for my wife from ARAO - she loved them! She really appreciated the beautiful pearls and unique design. I am no online jewelry shopping expert but the whole experience was convenient and super smooth, including the logistics, delivery and personal touch after-sales process. Also, their focus on ethical sourcing, authenticity and sustainability really resonates with me.

Absolutely in love with my Ligaya pendant! It was much bigger than I expected and it complements & elevates pretty much anything I wear. I love how unique the setting is. It is truly a classy, exquisite piece that brings me joy. Thank you, Arao Team, for the personalized service.

I like the elegant golden color of the South Sea pearl. The pendant is beautiful and the gift wrapping is lovely. Response and shipping are very smooth and reliable. I also love the background story of this brand, sustainable, ethical and 1% of love for coral reefs and kids' education in the Philippines.

TINGTING CHEN, ARAO CUSTOMER

Why do I love pearls? It’s a very simple accessory but very classic and timeless. It exudes sophistication even in its simplicity. It’s a staple for me as a full time executive where I jump from my daily work commitments, to night out for events or meet up with friends. The yellow pearl is a particular favorite — very vibrant reminiscent of my personality.

Maam Argos, Executive

Someone once said the pearl is the queen of gems and the gem of queens. Pearls give you that touch of elegance that no other piece of jewelry can give. No outfit is boring when accompanied by pearls. My most favorite are the rare ones from the Philippines. It gives me pride knowing they are from my country and the best in the world.
