About August Mae

Our Story

At August Mae, we make meaningful jewelry for real life. The kind you forget you’re even wearing because it just feels like you. We’ve been a jewelry girl since forever — layering pieces, making “just one more” the norm, and treating jewelry like a memory you can wear. That energy is still at the heart of everything we create.

Jewelry That Gives Back

We’re more than just a jewelry brand — we’re on a mission. As a rescue mama, animal welfare is personal to us. A portion of every year’s sales goes directly to local shelters and rescue organizations, helping give animals the care, love, and second chances they deserve. When you wear August Mae, you’re carrying that mission forward too — and that means something.

Made With Materials That Last

Before we ever launched this full collection, we spent years offering permanent jewelry — literally building jewelry meant to stay on. That experience taught us what actually holds up to sweat, showers, ocean water, perfume, sleep, workouts, airports, and real life. That’s why we design using 14k gold filled and sterling silver only. They’re tarnish resistant, skin friendly, and meant to be worn every day.

Jewelry That Tells Your Story

Jewelry isn’t just jewelry. It’s a moment. A memory. A person. A version of yourself. Whether it’s a custom engraved piece or just something that feels like you, our pieces are designed to hold meaning — not just complete an outfit.

Affordable Luxury, No Compromises

We care about the quality of what you wear every day — and we care about how it feels to spend money on yourself. Our price point reflects something we believe deeply: jewelry should be enjoyed, not stressed over. These pieces look elevated and last, while still being accessible enough to treat yourself or gift without hesitating. Thoughtful, real-life luxury.

Born in Buffalo, Made for Everywhere

August Mae was born in Buffalo, NY — a city known for its big heart and strong spirit. Those same values are stitched into every piece we create. Whether you're from Buffalo or beyond, our handmade jewelry is designed to bring a little extra meaning (and a lot of style) to your everyday.

Join the August Mae Community

When you choose August Mae, you’re joining a community that believes in ethical jewelry, animal welfare, and meaningful craftsmanship. It’s about more than jewelry — it’s about making a difference, one beautiful piece at a time.

FROM THE FOUNDER

Our Story

Owning a business has always been a dream of mine, and in October 2023, I finally took the leap of faith and launched August Mae. I'm incredibly grateful for the support of my loyal customers — your kindness and encouragement have been the driving forces behind my journey and success.

Being a small business owner is challenging, but it's also one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I wouldn’t change it for anything.

As a lifelong animal lover, giving back to animals is a core value of my business. A portion of every August Mae purchase helps support animal rescue organizations, providing care and love to animals in need. No matter how much August Mae grows, supporting animal welfare will always be at the heart of what I do.

I have so much more in store for August Mae, and I’m beyond excited to have you with me on this journey!

Xoxo, Cory
