🌿 The Artisans Behind the Earrings
These earrings are made by ironwork artisans living in an underprivileged community in the Kandal Province, about 45 minutes from Phnom Penh. The brass comes from bomb casings left over from Cambodia's wartime era — three decades on, these materials are being shaped into something entirely new.
Despite years of peace since the Khmer Rouge regime, around 30% of Cambodia's population still lives below the poverty line. By choosing these earrings, you're helping create fair, reliable work for artisans who need it most — keeping families together and traditional skills thriving.
