The story behind the piece

This necklace is created by skilled metalwork artisans living in disadvantaged communities around Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The bomb casings and bullet fragments used come from remnants left by the war that ravaged the country decades ago.

Through their talent and the reuse of these materials, artisans transform symbols of conflict into meaningful pieces of jewelry, helping to generate income and better living conditions for their families.

By purchasing this necklace, you are supporting a Fair Trade project, which promotes decent employment, fair remuneration, and sustainable opportunities for communities with high levels of unemployment. This income is especially important for many women, allowing them to ensure better living conditions, education, and a more promising future for their children.

Inspired by Cambodia's cultural richness, these creations also help preserve traditional craft techniques, transforming materials from the past into symbols of hope, resilience, and renewal.
