Meet Keira, the heart and soul behind Yallambe, a jewellery brand that's redefining the way we think about fashion and sustainability.
Growing up in the Aussie bush, Keira was always drawn to the beauty of the natural world. But it was something God placed on her heart at the age of six that sparked a vision that would stay with her for life – to create a safe space for women and girls affected by trafficking, where they could find community, support, and economic empowerment.
Years later at age 13, Keira turned that vision into a reality with Yallambe. From its humble beginnings In the corner of her room on her family's farm, Yallambe has grown into a thriving business that's making a real difference in the lives of those who need it most.
But what sets Yallambe apart isn't just its commitment to social justice – it's also Keira's passion for sustainability and her dedication to creating pieces that are not only beautiful but also meaningful.
For Keira, the journey with Yallambe has been full of surprises. One of the most unexpected moments came when she first started out, buying materials from $2 shops to make jewellery. But as she delved deeper, she discovered the dark truth behind the cheap materials – slave trade, child labour, and exploitation.
That moment was a turning point for Keira. She realized that she couldn't just create jewellery that looked good; she had to create pieces that did good too. She began researching sustainable materials, ethical suppliers, and organisations that supported survivors of trafficking to give back to.
Today, Yallambe is a brand that's committed to making a difference. From sourcing materials to hand-making each piece, Keira is meticulous about every detail. She uses recycled metals, sustainable materials, and environmentally-friendly practices to minimize Yallambe's carbon footprint. And with every purchase, 30% goes towards supporting organisations that rescue trafficking victims and feed children in poverty.
For Keira, Yallambe is more than just a business – it's a way of life. It's about living slowly, mindfully, and authentically. It's about creating pieces that tell a story, that hold meaning, and that inspire others to live more intentionally.
As you wear a piece of Yallambe jewellery, you're not just adorning yourself with something beautiful – you're also becoming part of a movement. A movement that's redefining the way we think about fashion, sustainability, and social justice.
So come and join the journey. Let's create a more beautiful, more just, and more sustainable world – one piece of jewellery at a time.
