THE SONGWE COLLECTION
Shaped by the river. Made by hand.
Inspired by the Songwe River in northern Malawi—a place we were fortunate to call home for many years—the Songwe Collection begins with hand-carved designs, creating soft, organic forms that feel as though they’ve been shaped by the river over time.
Each piece is then cast, stone set, polished, and plated in-house by our team of makers in Malawi.
A collection shaped by place, craft, and the hands behind every piece.
Jewelry Crafted with Intention
Thoughtfully Made
Designed and prototyped at our Asheville design studio and handcrafted at our Northern Malawi production studio using certified recycled metals.
Human-Centered Production
Supports living wages, artisan training, holistic social benefits, and long-term employment through ethical craftsmanship in Malawi.
Regenerative Impact
Every piece plants a tree in Northern Malawi through our partnership with a women-led reforestation initiative, creating a greener future for all.
