About Us

Our Story


Our jewelry story began In the early '90s, when our founder Tonya exchanged broken gold pieces for rings and necklaces at Georgetown's jewelry stores, located near M Street and Wisconsin Avenue in Washington, DC.  Captivated by the process of crafting precious metals and the enhancement of stones to radiate brilliance, Tonya was determined to establish an accessible premier jewelry brand.

Committed to education, uplifting, and empowerment, her vision materialized in collections that harmoniously blend the high-end look with affordability while also offering the elegance of precious pieces that inspire individuals.


Our Suppliers

Our suppliers maintain an ongoing environmental consciousness and fair trade awareness in the manufacturing process and in the lives of all of their associates. Our suppliers are committed to conducting operations in the most socially responsible manner possible—from using recycled metals to sourcing ethically sourced diamonds and gemstones.

Ethical Sourcing

Recognizing the challenges associated with providing precious materials in a responsible manner, our suppliers ensure our jewelry is produced in the most ethical way possible.

Recycled Metals

Our suppliers use 100% recycled materials in the manufacturing processes.  Our partners are committed to ethical sourcing and environmental sustainability in all aspects of our operations. 

Gemstone Sourcing

Our suppliers are committed to adhering to strict protocols in regard to the sourcing of both lab-created and mined gemstones. As a natural resource, gemstones can be found almost anywhere, but they are mined, cut, and exchanged too frequently to keep traceable documentation of their exact source. However, we engage in communication with suppliers to ensure the integrity of the gemstones we purchase to be as transparent and trustworthy as possible.


Ethically Sourced Diamonds

Our partners procure the majority of their diamonds directly from suppliers that manufacture rough diamonds. Most polished diamonds originate from Canada, South Africa, Botswana, and Namibia. Their membership with the Diamond Manufacturers and Importers Association of America (DMIA) means that we share their commitment to upholding the highest standards for ethics, integrity, and professionalism in the diamond industry. Together, we are committed to boosting consumer confidence in diamonds.

No-Conflict Diamonds

We are committed to selling conflict-free, ethically sourced diamonds. We believe it is completely unacceptable to tolerate conflict diamonds and human suffering in any way.  All polished, mined diamonds sold by Freddi T. Lane Enterprises Inc.  are vetted through suppliers who comply with the World Diamond Council System of Warranties and the Kimberly Process, which ensures rough diamonds are

  • Exported and imported with a government-validated certificate stating the diamonds are conflict-free.
  • Transported between signatory countries in a sealed, tamper-proof container.
  • Sold with a statement from the seller on all invoices guaranteeing the diamonds sold are conflict-free.

Gemstones Our manufacturing partners adhere to strict protocols in regards to the sourcing of both lab-grown and mined gemstones. As a natural resource, gemstones can be found almost anywhere, but they are mined, cut, and exchanged too frequently to easily collect traceable documentation of their exact source.
