From Eden:

Eden's Knots of Freedom Hoop Earrings are inspired by the knotted rope Tho Tho used to escape from captivity.

Knots of Freedom is a remarkable story of escape. It highlights how we can escape the corruption that is in the world by disreputable desires.

Tho Tho was the eldest of her siblings. Out of desperation, her family believed the lies and false promises of a local agent. They sent Tho Tho with the local agent to a factory which in reality was a home where for months she would be raped by a man and enslaved to his family.

Her escape was not an instant rescue, it took months of accumulating scrap materials and knotting them together, to finally descend and have her feet touch freedom.

The knotted hoops are 1.7" in diameter and come finished in natural and 18K gold-plated stainless steel on 316 medical-grade stainless steel posts.
