Welcome to our global maker-to-market movement where, together with 20,000 artisans, we ignite social change. We create opportunities for individuals, families, and communities in developing countries to thrive through strong relationships, fair wages, safe working conditions, and sustainable practices.
As part of our bombshell collection, the Brass Triangle Cuff Ring is made from recycled brass bombshells cleared safely by a demining agency from the fields of Cambodia after decades of war. Artisans crafting bombshell jewelry share their hope for the future of their country with us, through their artistry, in pieces like this adjustable ring.
