Copper earrings with nickel free brass ear wires, inspired by the Shiwezwa album artwork. The copper is recycled from old geysers (water heaters), and each piece is lovingly hand-crafted by Elina and Memory from FREE, a woman's jewellery-making collective in a poor compound in Lusaka, Zambia, as part of this special collaboration.
50% of sales proceeds go directly back to FREE, and to the two jewelleresses Elina and Memory. The jewellery is part of the special edition Namvula x FREE line, in which I reimagine the artwork from the albums Quiet Revolutions and Shiwezwa.
Note that pieces will naturally vary slightly as they are hand-made - and so will be unique to YOU!
