I call these KHS rings, the stone is the colour of our summer school uniforms...between July 2020 and May 2021, we all turned 50, and so I made 11 rings, that these beautiful 11 women bought, and are being couriered around the world. Many of us went through nursery and primary school as a friendship circle, and the primary uniforms were also light blue

The Johannesburg Children’s Home (JCH), established in 1892, is a well-managed institution with a long history of exemplary service to the children of our city. JCH is a registered Non-Profit Organisation (NPO 001-034) and Public Benefit Organisation (PBO 18/11/13/1111) which provides a safe refuge for up to 64 children of all races who have been found in need of care by the Children’s Court. JCH cares for Orphans and Vulnerable Children found to be disadvantaged through physical, sexual or emotional abuse, severe neglect or abandonment, some are affected or infected by HIV/AIDS. At JCH they start a new life, living communally in cottages, under the loving eyes of trained Child and Youth Care Workers. Although JCH receives a State subsidy for each child, this covers only 11% of actual costs. If not for the generosity of the people of Johannesburg and further afield, this vital work could not be sustained. Book now for the jewellery pop-up and learn to make your own wire rose rings or beaded earrings. 50% of all proceeds to the JCH.
