Mukaji Pendant

She raised her fist in remembrance.

A sculptural tribute to the Congolese woman — strong, still, and sacred. “Mukaji,” meaning woman in Tshiluba, honours the matriarchs who built legacies without noise, who led empires in silence, and whose power lives through you.

The Artistry

Every Mukaji Pendant is hand-finished in 18k gold vermeil, with precision engraving that captures light across its radiating lines. The raised fist emerges as sculpture — polished, resilient, eternal.

"Only 25 Mukaji Pendants are crafted worldwide in 2025."
