18kt Gold Vermeil Next Generation Zakia Earrings

Project Info

When the Taliban took over, Zakia Jamshidpoor moved to Kabul, determined to work and support her family. It was there she discovered Zindagi Now, which opened a window of opportunity for her to pursue her passion and turn it into a livelihood. The mango inspires Zakia’s first collection for Pippa Small Jewellery, its shape, warmth, and the memories of summer days in Afghanistan. Each piece is a celebration of resilience and creativity, carrying both beauty and meaning. Zakia says: “For me, jewellery is more than decoration – it is a way to bring hope and joy. Through this collection, I want to show that Afghan women can create something beautiful even in the hardest times.”
