If you are in the market for something unusual for your Valentine, consider dropping a peaceBOMB on them. To be specific, we’re talking about the jewelry created by Project peaceBomb. At the end of the Vietnam War, Laos was blanketed by pieces of unexploded cluster bombs. Now, farmer-artisans are repurposing the scrap bomb metal into bracelets and other jewelry as part of a project called “Buying Back the Bombs,” which is led by sustainable fashion company Article 22. Each piece is handmade and therefore entirely unique, plus with each purchase, you will help to raise awareness and fund the clearance of unexploded ordinance from Lao fields.
