Ben-Amun was founded by Egyptian born jewelry designer Isaac Manevitz. The name Ben-Amun was inspired by the designer's eldest son, Ben, and one of the former king's of Egypt, Tutankhamun. He has brought his love of sculpture to his collections by working with some of the finest and most interesting materials to create unique designs that are both modern and contemporary, yet timeless Ben-Amun jewelry is consistently featured on the style dictating pages of Vogue, Harper’s BAZAAR, Vanity Fair, ELLE, GLAMOUR, W and PORTER magazine.
