18kt Gold Vermeil Next Generation Khatera Earrings

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 was a proud teacher and now a proud jewellery maker at the Zindagi Now workshop. Here, amidst the creative process, we make jewellery but also find a sense of peace and empowerment."
