Material

Wood, Metal Clasp

This jewellery piece was hand made by skilled artisans in the Philippines, using mamalis timber (Pittosporum Pentandrum), also known as white wood or pangantoon. The timber was grown in the Philippines in managed plantations.

Each wooden bead is hand turned and custom dyed, followed with a natural wax polish for surface protection.

Maker

This piece is handmade in Cebu, Philippines by a family-owned workshop called Earthworks who have collaborated with ELK since 2004. We have a wonderful relationship with the owner, Christine, who has become an (unofficial) part of our family. She runs an incredible business with a team made up mostly of women, with some great skills training and health program initiatives in place.
