Kora merges the worlds of beautiful jewelry and socially-minded economic development in the belief that these two things need not be mutually exclusive. Meaning ‘work’ in Kinyarwandan, Rwanda’s native language, Kora's jewelry helps to create jobs and support sustainable development in the African countries in which the items are produced. Each one-of-a-kind bracelet, ring, and necklace is locally sourced in Nairobi, Kenya, Rwanda and Ghana, and are produced from rescued and recycled materials such as horn, aluminum and silver. The artisans who craft each piece are paid a fair trade wage, thereby promoting sustainable economic success and providing the crucial capital necessary to build their businesses. Supporting sustainable development does not mean Kora sacrifices its fashion-forward aesthetic. With a range of striking bangles, cuffs, necklaces and rings, Kora's modern, minimalist look is the perfect accent for any Goldyn girl's wardrobe.
