ABLE began with a simple idea: where you spend your money has the power to create real change. It
started in Ethiopia, where we began selling handwoven scarves made by women rebuilding their lives. As
demand grew, so did our impact. We expanded into leather goods and later opened a full-scale jewelry
studio in Nashville, where we hire and train women overcoming adversity to craft high-quality, handmade
pieces.
Today, ABLE is known for thoughtfully designed, unique, yet-everyday, pieces. Our products are made to
last, blending function, beauty, and purpose. Behind every piece is a story of dignity and opportunity.
We’re committed to creating safe, meaningful jobs for women both in our Nashville studio and around the
world through our partnerships with ethical manufacturers.
In an industry where women make up 80% of the workforce, but often lack fair wages and safe
conditions, we’re proving that it’s possible to do business differently. We work to create safe, dignified jobs both in Nashville, where our home office and jewelry studio are located, and also around the world, through our partnerships with value-aligned manufacturers. When customers and companies
choose ABLE, they’re investing in both exceptional products and the people who make them.
