HUNGER GAMES JEWELRY

 The Hunger Games Catching Fire Jewelry Collection





The brand new Hunger Games Movie is out and Catching Fire torched our souls from the core.As much as we are not fund of the philosophy behind this movie, it doesn't keep us from being fascinated with brave and amazing Katniss and the beautiful and flamboyant costumes and make up of the "Capitol". As OKG JEWELRY we are so inspired by it that we created this "The Hunger Games Catching Fire Jewelry Collection" based on the main characteristics of the 12 districts of Panem. We can't wait for them to start a revolution and declare their independence as well as taking over the Capitol!

Let's talk about these 12 Districts:

DISTRICT 11 _ Agriculture District 
"Known for its bountiful orchards, District 11's workers spend their days among rustling fruit trees and sizeable farms." ―Description from The Hunger Games: Tribute Guide

This district is also full of farmers, gardeners and harvesters. However all their crop goes to the Capitol. After Rue's death was shown, and Katniss saluted District 11, a riot was started in District 11.
This is one of our favorite districts because the sweat character Rue from the 1st Hunger games movie.



"I see her in the mockingjays that sing in the trees." said Katniss about Rue. 
Even though she was a little girl, she was able to climb the tallest trees in District 11, she would see the flag signaling and sing her four song when the work was over for the day. This song would be spread through all the orchards. Mockingjays were her friends.

Here are the chariot costumes of  District 11,


The Hunger Games Catching Fire District 11


Here is a piece of jewelry that we think reflects Rue's character.

DISTRICT 12 _ Miners District 
"One of the outer districts, this is nonetheless a crucial one. These brave and hardy workers descend deep into the earth each day to mine the coal that keeps our nation running." ―Description from The Hunger Games: Tribute Guide

District 12 where the legendary Hunger Games Tribute Katniss Everdeen lives! This is the poorest district of Panem. They are mainly Coal miners and "Hob Merchants" which is the lack market of the district, where Katniss purchased the infamous mocking jay pendant.

We dedicated 3 different pieces of jewelry for District 12 since we are obsessed with the outfits Katniss is wearing.
