FOR THE SUSTAINABLE FASHIONISTA
"What a beautiful idea to turn something so negative into something positive" -Emma Watson
These earrings are the definition of sustainable: environmentally, they are upcycled from shrapnel and debris, culturally, they are made by fair trade Laotian artisans who developed this craft technique in the 1970s, and socially, men and women work side byside at homemade earthen kilns in their gardens.
Two hundred miles south of the UNESCO World Heritage Site city, the sleepy capital of Vientiane is home to Wat Sisaket, the temple that inspires our Tribal Dome Earrings finished with the traditional silversmithing technique of the Hmong ethnic group.
Made from our signature transformed metal and finished with sterling silver bead bezel and earring posts, these earrings are effortlessly chic, super lightweight and comfortable to wear.
Each piece gives back to support traditional Laotian artisan livelihoods, village development, community endeavors and further de-mining efforts contributing directly to MAG (Mines Advisory Group) to safely & expertly clear some of the 80 million unexploded bombs contaminating land in Laos.
