Our Values

Our Values

We’re here to shift the tide.

Born from the vibrant byproduct of surfboard making, Surf Gems turns what was once waste into one-of-one jewelry that sparks conversation and connection. Each piece is handcrafted just blocks from the Pacific—carved with care, shaped by stoke, and finished with intention.

We believe in more than adornment

We craft colorful pieces with deep purpose—championing self-expression, creative reuse, and sustainable curiosity. Surf Gems is our way of asking the hard questions: What are we consuming? What are we discarding? And how can we do better—together?

We’re woman-led and ocean-rooted

Founder Abby Ahlgrim created Surf Gems at the edge of the ocean, inspired by the strength of women in the water and the many stories hiding beneath the surface. We're here to celebrate craft, challenge the norm, and make jewelry that feels personal, powerful, and planet-minded.
Trust the process until you transform the process. Follow the flow until you are the flow. Trust the process until you transform the process. Follow the flow until you are the flow.
