LAOS-US-FASHION-JEWELRY

This picture taken on February 10, 2015 shows a Laotian villager and artisan pouring liquid aluminium into a mould as he crafts a raw piece of jewelry ordered by US fashion brand Article22 and made of aluminium recycled from Vietnam War bombs and other objects at his workshop outside his house in Ban Napia, in the northern Laotian province of Xiangkhouang. Elizabeth Suda and Camille Hautefort are the founders of Article22 in New York City, a jewelry design company that works with 12 artisan families in rural Laos who began transforming bombs to spoons in the 1970s. Each jewelry piece supports artisan livelihoods, village development, and demining in Laos AFP PHOTO/CHRISTOPHE ARCHAMBAULT (Photo credit should read CHRISTOPHE ARCHAMBAULT/AFP via Getty Images)
