Recycled Brass Ring
Recycled Brass Ring

The unisex Recycled Brass Ring features an adjustable band. This ring is handmade in Cambodia where decades of conflict have left the countryside littered with bomb and bullet casings. One by one, the makers at our fair trade partner Rajana cut and shape brass bullet and bomb casings, which have been safely cleared by a demining agency, into jewelry.

HANDCRAFTED IN CAMBODIA

  • Upcycled brass bomb casing and upcycled brass bullet casing
  • Bullet casing ranges between 0.35‒0.45D inches, Adjustable band: 0.25W x 0.65 inner diameter (at the neutral positioning) inches
  • Handcrafted in Cambodia
