Leaf Ring

Add a natural motif to your capsule wardrobe with the Leaf Ring from Cambodia. This ring, made from 92% pure silver and recycled brass bomb casing, is distinctive enough to draw attention yet simple enough to match nearly any outfit. Decades of conflict have left the countryside of Cambodia littered with bombs. One by one, the makers at our fair trade partner Rajana cut and shape brass bomb casings, safely cleared by a demining agency, into jewelry - wearable statements of peace and progress.
