I was fortunate to meet two representatives from Article22 who hosted a pop-up event in New York City close to the holiday season in 2025. The incredible work of Articlee22 inspired me, and I followed up with Kendall Silwonuk, the organization’s General Manager out of New York, to gain more insight and understanding of the process, and learn more about how she became involved.

I hope that you enjoy reading about Article22 in my peace Your Bracelet is the Bomb: Fidings and Natural Patina Amid the Melee. You can find it in the Spring Issue of NAWA NOW, NAWA’s magazine, here:

The amazing staff at Article22 kindly put together a selection of goods that I picked out from their website. You can find the page of items I hand chose via a hyperlink at the bottom of the article. Please take a look, and wander through their website. Read about these special people involved with Article22, and about how the founder searched her heart during a journey to discover the process of who and what makers were creating.

This piece, like each of us, is very special. I think that if you find yourself drawn to an item of Article22 creativity, you should consider acquiring it. Each piece is incredibly individual and unique. I adore the pieces I picked up, and I will be back for more!
