New and exclusive jewellery in the UK from Refugee Beads

While we were in Atlanta this January meeting our friends from Mata Traders we also bumped into a new supplier - Refugee Beads. This remarkable little project helps to support the refugee community in Georgia, offering them employment as well as providing activities such as after-school clubs for children. 

We loved the story but we were completely captivated by the actual products - delicate earrings alongside chunky necklaces with a sense of humour and fun. We placed an order on the spot!

We only have a small collection of Refugee Products available right now but hope to get more once we see which ones are popular. Let us know what you think! Here's Andrew with the Refugee Beads team.
