About Emi & Eve

what we do

We believe in the power of beauty from ashes. We create jewellery that transforms discarded materials into wearable symbols of beauty, resilience, and craft. Born from Cambodia’s post-conflict landscape, our journey began with repurposing bombshells and bullet casings. Today, our work spans regions and materials — from recycled bullet brass to bone, horn, tagua nut, and pearl — always grounded in traditional artisan techniques. Across countries and cultures, we remain devoted to elevating what’s been overlooked, through hands that honour history.

We give new life to materials that others discard, crafting enduring pieces with minimal environmental harm. Every element is thoughtfully sourced: bombshells collected from former conflict zones, bone and horn as natural byproducts, and tagua nuts — known as “vegetable ivory” — harvested sustainably. This is luxury with a conscience: refined design, rich stories, and respect for both people and planet. Because true luxury is sustainable.

WHO WE ARE

Cassandra Postema, founder of Emi & Eve, is a graduate in fashion and printed textiles from London’s prestigious Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. She was awarded New Generation sponsorship by the British Fashion Council to exhibit at London Fashion Week soon after graduating.

Driven by a passion for meaningful design, Cassandra’s journey led her to Cambodia, where she discovered a family recycling artillery shells into jewellery — a moment that sparked the creation of Emi & Eve.

To deepen her connection with artisanship, Cassandra moved to Bali, a place with personal significance. Here, she works more closely with a wider network of artisans, continuing to build relationships that shape the brand and expand its collections.

By supporting women in landmine clearing roles, we contribute to their empowerment and the renewal of the land itself. Each piece of jewellery we create from recycled war remnants carries not only the marks of transformation but also a message of resilience. For those who wear our jewellery, this story of recovery and hope becomes their own — a personal symbol of strength.

In Bali, artistry is a way of life — present in rituals, offerings, architecture, and adornment. Here, we found a community where nearly everyone is an artisan, and where craftsmanship is seamlessly woven into daily living. Our Balinese partners bring centuries-old techniques to materials like horn, pearl, and recycled brass, lending each piece its soulful detail. Collaboration with them has expanded our vision while deepening our respect for the sacred role of making by hand.
