Article22 Will Blow Your Mind With Their Peacebomb Collection!

It is designers like Article22 that really make me thankful for starting Jejune, which lets me be aware of and share with the world these amazing people! Article22 goes to Laos and takes the old bomb scrapinal from the Vietnam war and, while working with the local artisans, turns it into beautiful jewelry. They then sell this jewelry and help the communities in Laos come back from the incredible amount of damage this war had on it’s people. What a beautiful idea. I don’t think I need to say more. To learn more about Article22 and Peacebomb, please read our exclusive interview here with founder Elizabeth Suda.
