From the cotton weaving to the welding to its final shape, each pendant is handmade by Afghan women. Each hand transforms the raw cotton into thread, to the woven process, turning the thread into a beautiful handknitted fabric. The collection supports around 1000 artisanal craftsmen, women, and their families.
