18kt Gold Vermeil Next Generation Sumaia Ring

Next Generation is a platform for Afghan jewellers from our initiative Zindagi Now and men's and women's businesses supported through Arts Charity Turquoise Mountain to show and sell their work.

Their designs draw on their cultural heritage, material design culture, and their own personal experiences. Supporting and treasuring this work will have a huge impact and bring visibility, independence, and joy to the lives of women and men of Afghanistan facing economic and social challenges.

"I lived as a refugee in Iran, a challenging time not just for me, but for my family as well. Now, we have returned, and I stand as a proud daughter to my Dad, creating beautiful handmade jewellery.” - Sumaia
