A hackneyed symbol, this peace sign is different. Its material has provenance and a story: farmer-artisans in Laos have turned swords to ploughshares since the 1970s, transforming bombs into soup spoons at the end of the Vietnam War. Together with ARTICLE22, their local market has expanded through jewelry and objects with global appeal. 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.

clears 2m2 of Laotian landscape.
