Crafted from ethically sourced materials, this unique jewelry collection raises awareness about land subsidence. The uneven copper exterior mimics the Earth's cracked surface, while brass layers symbolize the impact reaching the core. This ergonomic design, reminiscent of geological formations, visually represents the varying soil strata, serving as a stark reminder of human activity's consequences. The collection empowers wearers to become conscious consumers and advocates for a more sustainable future.
