Artisan Profile

Home-based ironwork artisans from an underprivileged community near Phnom Penh, Cambodia, meticulously craft this recycled bomb shell and bullet jewelry. These bomb casings are remnants from Cambodia's wartime three decades ago. By transforming these materials into beautiful jewelry, artisans generate a crucial income for their communities. Although Cambodia has seen years of peace and development since the brutal Khmer Rouge regime, 30% of the population still lives below the poverty line, earning less than $1.25 a day.

By purchasing this shell casing necklace, you contribute to creating fair trade jobs for disadvantaged Cambodians facing high unemployment rates. Artisans receive fair and equitable pay for their skilled work, enabling them to provide for their families and ensure a stable future. This reliable income is especially vital for women, allowing them to care for their children and invest in their future. The designs draw inspiration from Cambodia's rich cultural heritage, helping to preserve traditional Cambodian skills.
