Reminiscent of a moon shining through leafy branches, this jewelry reminded us of the willow trees at Whitney. Women's Peace jewelry is designed and handcrafted by a close knit group of artisans who work with a fair trade cooperative in Bali. Bali silversmiths are renowned for a traditional and unique filigree style; these artisans pride themselves on honoring their culture while incorporating an innovative and modern touch with each piece they create.
Indonesia shares a history of chattel slavery, when it was part of the Dutch colonial empire. Slavery in the Dutch empire was not abolished until 1860 and it continued in insidious extra-legal ways into the 20th century. Today, Indonesians face a higher prevalence of forced labor as part of modern day slavery. Women's Peace Collective provides skilled, well-paying jobs to artisans.
