Founded in 1928 in the heart of Monaco, Albanu is a world-renowned jewelry house celebrated for its unique craftsmanship and timeless designs. Specializing in the creation of exquisite pieces using materials like elephant hair, giraffe hair, and precious metals, Albanu’s collections embody the connection between humanity and nature. Each piece tells a story of tradition, strength, and respect for the natural world.
Rooted in a legacy of excellence, Albanu has built a reputation for creating jewelry that is not only beautiful but also deeply meaningful. The elephant hair bracelet, one of the brand's iconic designs, symbolizes protection, unity, and the enduring bond between humans and the wild.
A Commitment to Conservation
Albanu’s dedication to wildlife extends beyond its artistry. The company is closely linked to Albanu South Africa, a division that leads impactful projects to protect elephants and other endangered species. Recognizing the urgent need to address poaching and habitat loss, Albanu initiated efforts to tag and monitor wildlife while sustainably collecting materials like elephant hair during tagging operations.
This ethical approach ensures that every strand of hair used in Albanu’s jewelry not only preserves tradition but also contributes to the protection and preservation of these majestic creatures. By integrating conservation into its core values, Albanu continues to champion the coexistence of luxury, heritage, and responsibility.
Our Vision
From Monaco to Africa, Albanu’s mission is to bridge the worlds of craftsmanship and conservation, creating pieces that inspire while supporting meaningful efforts to safeguard wildlife. Through partnerships with Albanu South Africa and conservation initiatives, the brand remains dedicated to preserving nature’s beauty for future generations.
