Love is the Bomb 7 Diamond Bangle
LOVE and LUXE.... 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Love is the bomb is our guiding mantra, as objects of destruction are transformed into symbols of love.
It is with this spirit of love that farmer-artisans in Laos began transforming Vietnam War shrapnel and scrap into soup spoons to feed their noodle soup loving neighbors in the 1970s.
When we first launched Peacebomb Jewelry, we received so many requests for this special message, we began finishing select designs with diamonds – the most iconic symbol of love.
Each ARTICLE22 piece is a modern heirloom – an actual piece of history redesigned with intention – that inspires action toward our future, individually and collectively.
Each piece gives back to support traditional Laotian artisan livelihoods, village development, community endeavors and further de-mining efforts.
Your purchase contributes to MAG (Mines Advisory Group) to safely & expertly clear some of the 80 million unexploded bombs contaminating land in Laos.
$365 7-Diamond Bangle clears 23m2 of Laotian landscape

East meets West. Each PEACEBOMB Al piece is authentically handcrafted in Laos and finished in Vientiane or New York.
PEACEBOMB Al does not have to be removed in water. Metal does not tarnish, rust or leave discoloration on skin and has been tested to determine that it is NICKEL FREE.
Bangles can be worn constantly. With wear, each piece becomes uniquely yours and will acquire a polished patina from the natural oils of your skin.
ABOUT OUR DIAMONDS
We use SI-1 / SI-2 quality and clarity of White Diamond cut in the traditional "Diamond Cut" technique working to ensure, along with our diligent diamond merchant, an "eye-clean" depth perception in an endeavor that no inclusions are seen with the naked eye. (this is not a guarantee of this though)
Please know that every diamond supplied to ARTICLE22 is certified conflict-free, based on personal knowledge and/or written guarantee, from our reputable and honorable merchant here in NYC, and purchased within the supply chain in compliance with UN resolutions and the 2003 Kimberly Process Act.
