Sowana Earrings - Papua New Guinea

Elegant and eye-catching, the Sowana Earrings by Bilum & Bilas are designed to move beautifully with you. Featuring three delicately handwoven natural fibre discs, each piece tells a story of cultural heritage and craftsmanship. Woven from rapa — a natural plant fibre similar to sisal — and suspended from gold or silver plated brass, these earrings are lightweight enough for all-day wear yet bold enough to stand out from the crowd.

Each pair celebrates generations of weaving traditions while providing fair, sustainable income for women artisans across Papua New Guinea.
