“Jewellery can have a purpose which elevates it from being just a form of adornment. Equality is a basic human value which should be a part of the world’s status quo, but unfortunately is not. Today, thanks to social media, individual voices can be gathered into a collective force to impact global conversation. We hope with the Equality Bracelet initiative, we can contribute to keeping the conversation alive,” Mads and Mikkel Kornerup, Founders, Shamballa Jewels.
