Robert Ebert
President/CEO Rebert Sales LLC

Robert Ebert is a jewelry industry veteran of 34 years. An owner/partner of M. W. Samara, Inc., a sterling silver jewelry designer, manufacturer and distributor established in 1972, Ebert pioneered the "bridge jewelry" department in major US retailers as we know it today. Prior to 1975, silver jewelry was nowhere to be found in major US retailers until Ebert's company educated the retailer and ultimate consumer on the virtues of sterling silver. Today, Ebert has introduced that same market to the first extensive collection of sterling silver jewelry made from 100% recycled metal, a breakthrough in eco-friendly products in the industry.

"It is time for the jewelry and fashion industry to support such worthwhile endeavors like the Keza brand of products. The company vision is a model in sustainable practices and opportunity that retailers and consumers alike need to learn more about and embrace. I am happy to associate myself with such a noble mission!" - Robert Ebert, President/CEO Rebert Sales LLC
