Affinity Bracelet - Papua New Guinea

Thoughtful and symbolic, the Affinity Bracelet by Bilum & Bilas brings together two distinct strands — a polished 18k gold-filled chain and a handwoven rapa fibre wristlet — to represent connection, kinship, and the strength found in coming together. Earthy texture meets refined shine in a piece designed to layer effortlessly with your everyday jewellery, yet meaningful enough to stand on its own.

This bracelet honours centuries of cultural craftsmanship while supporting fair, sustainable livelihoods for women artisans in Papua New Guinea.
