FAQ

how are these 3D printed?

These pieces are printed in Nylon 12 using HP Multi Jet Fusion, which builds fine detail and embeds color into the charm rather than coating it. Nylon 12 is safe against skin; the powder and agents are certified to USP Class I–VI and tested to ISO 10993-5 and 10993-10, the standards used for anything worn against intact skin. It's light, it doesn't tarnish, and it won't turn your neck green.

is each piece an original?

Yes. Every piece is designed by us, not a scan run straight to the printer. We model, digitally color, and combine elements into a new composition, and many pieces go through several rounds: printed, rescanned alongside new elements, recomposed, reprinted. Each generation carries traces of the last.

where do the original objects come from?

From a digital archive we've been building for years!

can I order one of the archive pieces?

Yes! The necklaces we currently have ready and available are under Necklaces, but anything can be reordered, resized or redesigned with your ideas in mind.

do you do customs?

YES! Email amema3d@gmail.com or DM @amema.us.

how should I care for my jewelry?

No ultrasonic cleaners, no jewelry polish or solvents. Keep it out of long direct sun so the color stays true, and let perfume or lotion dry before putting it on. Full instructions are on our care page.

what's your return policy?

All sales are final, so we do not offer refunds, returns or exchanges, and we can't be responsible for items lost or delayed in shipping or for damage from improper use or wear.

That said, we are a small business and we would rather help than hide behind a policy. If something arrives damaged or your order goes wrong, email us or DM us and we will work with you to put it right :)

what does Amema mean?

We chose it because it's a palindrome. We found out afterwards that amema means “loving” in Esperanto, ami (to love) + -ema (inclined toward) = amema, “affectionate, loving.”
