Aza Earrings

Sober but impressive, ideal for a dinner where you want to impress without losing your essence.

Each JuaKali piece is crafted from mostly recycled brass, from doorknobs, locks and hinges, each molded with the promise of sustainability and timelessness.

All of our jewelry is handmade in Kibera, Nairobi by local artisans with whom we collaborate directly, ensuring that their unique skills are fairly compensated.

JUAKALI COLLECTION

Under the intense Kenyan sun, a group of dedicated carpenters, blacksmiths and artisans work and with their masterful hands they forge beauty from adversity, they do so with a surprising dose of innovation and resilience.

They are the JuaKali workers, a Swahili term, which translates as "burning sun", and which is a way of life for many Kenyans who face extreme conditions to create beauty and feed their families.

Our JuaKali collection is a tribute to all these artisans and their incredible skills. Each piece in this collection is an ode to their efforts, JuaKali jewelry is crafted from mostly recycled brass, each molded with the promise of sustainability and eternity.
