Akawelle | Jewelry


I am always so interested when someone starts a brand or a business to help others. So when I read, I just had to post it. Lovetta Conto is a 16 year old from Liberia, and this is her idea. She takes the empty bullet shells that liter her home land and transforms them into jewelry. Her goal is to move orphans from the same refugee camp that she spent her childhood in, into a better place. The line has 4 pieces which all contain the leaf and bullet end. The line has the pendant on a silver chain, a leather chain. And she also has the pendent or charm on leather and silver bracelets. COP IT

BTW: Akawelle means "Also known as love"
