Leah Singh

Gorgeous geometric jewelry from Leah Singh! Each piece is directly inspired by Singh’s cultural heritage in India and the systematic grid layout of New York where she attended Parson’s.

From the artist: Our jewelry is made with bone, a by-product of abattoirs and the local farming industry of India. Bone began to be used as a craft material after the ban on ivory. No animals are harmed to obtain the bone.

    Absolutely gorgeous! I love the use of bone here. We use bone for some of our buckles and I love the effect it gives.

    These are lovely and I don’t mean to be picky but an abbatoir is a slaugtherhouse. So it is not complelely correct to say no animals were harmed to obtain the bone. They were harmed, though not speficially for the jewelry.
