The Knots of Freedom Ring is a remarkable story of escape. Tho Tho was the eldest of her siblings. Out of desperation, her family trusted the misleading promises of a local agent. Accompanied by the local agent, she was taken to a factory that was actually a home. There, she endured months of sexual assault and enslavement at the hands of a man and his family.
Her escape was not a swift, dramatic rescue but rather a painstaking journey that unfolded over months. She spent countless days gathering scrap materials—carefully choosing each piece for its strength and potential. With steady hands, she knotted them together, weaving a makeshift rope strong enough to support her weight. At long last, after what felt like an eternity of preparation, she was ready. Carefully, she descended into the unknown, her heart pounding, until at last, her feet touched the ground, and she felt the exhilarating rush of freedom beneath her.
This exquisite stainless steel ring is adjustable to fit a US size 6. Each piece is thoughtfully handcrafted by artisans who are survivors in Myanmar, showcasing their resilience and skill.
