This holiday season, artist Yvonne Yao, founder of YVIE, has chosen to create unique designs for “Gift to Empower”, 24 days of unique one-of-a-kind daily designs for a cause. From December 1 – 24, 50 percent of all proceeds from Gift To Empower will be donated to Humanity Unified International, a charitable organization dedicated to lifting vulnerable populations out of poverty through education, food security programs and economic opportunities. The proceeds will be invested into a women’s farming cooperative project in Rwanda that will provide health, rights and business education along with all the tools, training and inputs necessary for 100 smallholder farmers to rise above poverty.
DAY 23 –Shamrock
Yao’s inspiration for the piece…
Merry Christmas Eve Everyone! Today is the final day of the “Gift To Empower” pop up collaboration and I want to thank all of you who have joined me for the ride—and further send love out to those who have contributed to our campaign to help empower women in Rwanda to rise above poverty. With the new year of 2016 just around the corner, I thought it apt to add a dash of charm into the wrapping up of one year…in preparation of facing the beginnings of another. Thus, for today, I am listing two shamrock necklaces in lieu of luck, charm, and good cheer—sold separately. (Please list necklace preference in order notes.)
Necklace 1 – $50: Sterling silver chain adorned with delicate faceted pyrite, peacock spinel, and a real clover pendant that is dipped in copper and patinated for an antiqued charm. (Length: 17 1/4”)
Necklace 2 – $50: 14kt Gold filled chain ornamented with natural garnets and featuring a real clover dipped in rose gold and patinated for a burnt rustic charm. (Length: 17 3/4”)
