Hand-knotted bracelet made of Japanese glass beads
The TWISTER lanyard from obo by Felix Doll combines delicate Japanese glass beads with vibrant colors in a beautiful spiral pattern. The lanyards can be worn over the shoulder or as a necklace—they are handmade pieces of jewelry that are both playful and unique.
The lanyards are made in Nepal, where women's cooperatives hand-crochet each piece from Japanese glass and brass beads. Each lanyard carries the story of traditional craftsmanship and fair working conditions.
Behind obo is Felix Doll, a Zurich-based fashion designer who, with his label obo, is committed to fair trade design. Since receiving a sustainability grant in 2013, Felix has been working closely with Nepalese artisans. obo's producers are members of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO): fair wages, respectful collaboration, and the appreciation of traditional craftsmanship are their top priorities.
obo doesn't produce mass-produced goods. The product range is deliberately manageable, and the products are created in close collaboration with the artisans. This leaves room for flexibility and creative experimentation, without losing sight of the principles of sustainability and fairness. An obo bracelet is more than just a piece of jewelry. It's a statement: for fairness, for the preservation of traditions, and for the joy of design. It's the small accessory that completes your outfit—and at the same time makes a difference in the world.
