🏺 Artisan Story
The ironwork artisans behind this piece live in an underprivileged community in Cambodia's Kandal Province. The brass they work with comes from bomb casings — remnants of Cambodia's devastating wartime, now decades past. While Cambodia has made remarkable strides since the Khmer Rouge era, around 30% of the population still lives below the poverty line today. By choosing this cuff, you're helping create sustainable livelihoods and preserving a craft tradition rooted in resilience.

Their collections include jewelry, accessories, textiles, and decorative objects — all created using traditional techniques and fair trade practices.
Their mission is simple and powerful: to connect modern design with ancient craftsmanship, while supporting dignified work opportunities in communities facing extreme poverty.

Because all products are handmade and often hand-dyed, each piece is naturally unique. Slight variations are part of their beauty — a reminder that these are not mass-produced objects, but human creations made with care.
