Classic Recycled Brass Hoop Earrings | 14K Gold Plated

From weapons of war to works of art. This is redemption, worn as jewelry.

These are not ordinary hoop earrings. They are a miracle of transformation — handcrafted by skilled artisan women in Siem Reap, Cambodia from recycled brass bombshells and bullet casings, then delicately finished with 14K gold plating and sterling silver earring backs. What was once an instrument of destruction has been redeemed into something beautiful, wearable, and full of meaning. If that is not a picture of the gospel — of God taking what was broken and making it new — we don’t know what is.

The Classic Bombshell Hoop Earrings by SLATE + SALT are minimal, elegant, and timelessly beautiful. Available in two sizes — Small (2.5 cm) and Large (4.5 cm) — they are the kind of earrings you reach for every single day. Lightweight, lustrous, and crafted with the geometric precision of 1920s design, they pair effortlessly with everything from a casual Sunday outfit to a polished evening look. The 14K gold plating gives them a warm, lasting shine, and because each piece is handmade, no two are exactly alike — making yours a truly one-of-a-kind work of art.

🌏 The Artisan Story

Near the UNESCO World Heritage site of Angkor Wat, a remarkable social enterprise is changing lives. This fair trade artisan group provides specialized design and production skills to young, disabled, and disadvantaged Cambodian women — offering them a safe, positive, and healthy environment to discover their creative potential and build dignified livelihoods. They believe, as we do, that women play an essential role in their nation’s development — and they are committed to proving it, one handcrafted piece at a time.

Using brass reclaimed from recycled bullet and bombshells, these artisans meticulously hand-make each piece of jewelry, specializing in flash-plating gold to ensure lasting brilliance. Every purchase you make directly supports their empowerment, their families, and their futures. This is faith in action — loving your neighbor across the world, one beautiful pair of earrings at a time.
