Description

Simple yet statement-making, these medium-sized recycled brass earrings make eye-catching everyday options that transition well for evening outings. Ethically sourced materials, elegant design, and sustainable craftsmanship come together to create these organically shaped, two-part studs. Soko redefines ethical fashion by matching marginalized Kenyan craftspeople with real-time demands to bring their stunning statements to market. Designed in San Francisco and handmade in Kenya.

This design was made using a traditional sand-casting technique. With this method, a pattern or exact replica of the object that will be cast is used to create a mold. The mold is made by packing sand, which contains a molasses chemical binder, around the pattern. After the mold is created, molten metal is poured into it and allowed to cool. The mold is then removed with a hammer and the pieces are hand-finished to be smooth and shiny.
