Wearing this beautiful bracelet sets you apart as an important supporter of opportunity in the slums of Kenya where opportunity is scarce. Working with hand tools, 15 young men and women find a sustainable income and a path out of the Nairobi slums. The Electroplated bracelet is about 8 inches in length and has various beads. A portion of all proceeds provide a much needed economic boost to artisans living in one of the poorest regions of the world in a small village in Kenya.
All workers producing our Fair Trade bracelets are paid a fair and reasonable wage for their products.
About the artisan:
This gorgeous bracelet was made possible by the wonderful people at Zakale Handicrafts. Working with Jedando Modern Handicrafts the young men and women of Zakale Jewelry produce handmade jewelry using the skills of wire work and electroplating. The project first started as a garbage collection project in the slums of Nairobi. Recycling remains very close to the heart of the project. Many of the pieces used are reclaimed or recycled.
