If you've been reading the blog for a while, you may remember an interview with Erika Freund, the designer behind accessories brand, Mikuti. The socially active company's style has evolved from its signature banana bracelets and this striking new collection really excites me as to what's still to come!
The inspiration behind this new line is love through symbolism. Each piece explores what we do with love and what love does with us. Materials used are repurposed cow horn, recycled brass and aluminum, sourced from artisans in both Uganda and Kenya.
Find out more about the inspiration behind the collection on Mikuti's Tumblr and get your hands on a special piece here.
