Introducing our stunning Bullet Cluster Necklace, a captivating blend of edginess and delicacy. Handcrafted with love in Cambodia, this necklace is a testament to the resilience and creativity of Cambodian artisans. Each piece features three highly polished bullet casings, meticulously transformed from recycled brass bomb shells and bullet fragments.

Measuring at a graceful 11 inches, this necklace is designed to accentuate your style with its unique and thought-provoking appeal. With slight variations in each piece, you can be assured that you are wearing a work of art that is truly one of a kind. The combination of recycled materials and expert craftsmanship results in a necklace that exudes both elegance and a powerful message.

By wearing this Bullet Cluster Necklace, you not only make a bold fashion statement but also contribute to a worthy cause. The ironwork artisans who create these pieces hail from underprivileged communities in the Kandal Province of Cambodia, where unemployment rates are high, and poverty still persists. The bomb casings used in this jewelry are remnants from Cambodia's wartime struggles three decades ago, transformed into symbols of hope and empowerment.

Your purchase of this necklace helps to create fair trade jobs for these disadvantaged Cambodian artisans, enabling them to earn a sustainable and equitable income. By paying them fairly for their skillful work, you are directly supporting their families and providing them with stability and opportunities. In a country where 30% of the population lives below the poverty line, your choice to wear this necklace becomes a powerful act of solidarity and social change.

Additionally, by preserving traditional Cambodian skills and drawing inspiration from the country's rich tapestry, these designs pay homage to Cambodia's cultural heritage. Each time you wear the Bullet Cluster Necklace, you become part of a movement that revitalizes and safeguards these timeless traditions.

Artisan Profile 

Ironwork artisans, living in an underprivileged community in the Kandal Province, approximately 45 minutes from Phnom Penh, Cambodia, make this recycled bomb shell and bullet jewelry. Bomb casings are left over from Cambodia's wartime three decades ago. Ironwork artisans skillfully mold bomb shells into beautiful jewelry pieces, introducing a small income to underprivileged communities. While Cambodia has enjoyed years of peace and development since the war and atrocities of the brutal Khmer Rouge regime, today 30% of the population still live below the poverty line (on less than $1.25 per day).

By purchasing these bombshell products, you are helping to create fair trade jobs for disadvantaged Cambodians with high levels of unemployment. Artisans are paid fairly and equitably for their skillful work, which keeps families together with food on their table. A liveable and reliable income is especially important for women as it allows them to raise healthy babies and children and provide for their future. The designs use inspiration from Cambodia's rich tapestry, restoring and preserving many traditional Cambodian skills.
