These bomb casings are remnants from Cambodia's wartime three decades ago. Skillful ironwork artisans transform these shells into exquisite jewelry pieces, providing a much-needed income to disadvantaged communities.
Despite years of peace and development since the war and the Khmer Rouge regime, 30% of Cambodia's population still lives below the poverty line (on less than $1.25 per day).
