IN YOUR BODY IS A GOOD PLACE TO BE -
Skin cancer left a Z-shaped scar on her forehead. Embracing this personal horror, Beatrix Ost turned it into beauty by tattooing it light purple. It was this concept of
transformation that led us to create our first mantra
bangles: "in your body is a good place to be." Beatrix has been an ARTICLE22 collaborator ever since. A true Renaissance Woman, she is an artist, designer, author,
and filmmaker. Born in Germany, she lives between NYC
and Charlottesville, VA.
"There does not have to be a compromise between your ideas and the objects you wear" - Beatrix Ost
Each ARTICLE22 piece is a modern heirloom – an actual piece of history redesigned with intention – that inspires action toward our future, individually and collectively.
This diamond bangle is offered in two options. The diamond is set in a 14k gold bezel, or, the diamond is directly embedded into our signature Peacebomb Aluminum. Each diamond is a 1.7mm Kimberley Process Certified gem and i
s juxtaposed with Beatrix's signature mantra engraved on our signature Peacbomb Al skinny bangle which is available in Small, Standard, and now Large (available for custom ordering).
Each piece gives back to support traditional Laotian artisan livelihoods, village development, community endeavors and further de-mining efforts. Your purchase contributes to MAG (Mines Advisory Group) to safely & expertly clear some of the 80 million unexploded bombs contaminating land in Laos.
