Next Generation is a platform for Afghan jewellers from our initiative Zindagi Now and men's and women's businesses supported through Arts Charity Turquoise Mountain to show and sell their work.

Their designs draw on their cultural heritage, material design culture, and their own personal experiences. Supporting and treasuring this work will have a huge impact and bring visibility, independence, and joy to the lives of women and men of Afghanistan facing economic and social challenges.

Born in Jalalabad and raised as a refugee in Pakistan, Lima returned to Kabul determined to build a new future. After six months of training with Zindagi Now, she has become a skilled artisan creating jewellery that blends Afghan heritage with modern elegance. Each piece in her debut collection reflects pride, resilience, and hope. By wearing Lima’s designs, you support her journey of empowerment and help keep Afghan artistry alive.
