Turning destructive items into beauty

Thoeun Chantha, who founded Angkor Bullet Jewellery, lost loved ones, including his parents, through the ravages of war in the days of the Khmer Rouge. After their passing, he had to learn at a very young age to care for himself. To cope with his loss, he used the very objects that took his loved ones away to create beautiful pieces of jewellery and ornaments.
