'In another life' Up-cycled Vegan Kombucha Necklace
Some jewellery, by design along, takes us back to another time, another way of life. To fasten the clasp on a certain style of necklace has my shoulders back and my neck long, as if I walk the halls as royalty in an ancient palace and not the streets I grew up in.
This lovely design of necklace was marked for destruction. The main centrepiece stone had cracked and was falling into pieces. We used a carefully hand-dyed shade of our homegrown and made Kombucha leather to fill that space and emulate the rich stone that originally lived there. There are some area's of darkness from age, but we've chosen to leave them, as a piece like this is only enhanced by a feeling of history.
Working with Up-cycling
Please keep in mind that, while we make every effort to ensure the quality of the pre-loved jewellery that we select for repurposing (from disinfection at intake to when the new product leaves our hands), working with upcycled products does leave us with elements we can't control. We would love to guarantee the quality of our steel, strength of the links ect, (and if we ever can we will be thrilled to list that in the description above) however due to the nature of working in this area, that is not always possible.
Product Specifications
This piece, like all of our made to wear work, is created by repurposing unwanted, discarded and damaged jewellery and combining it with our hand-dyed Vegan Kombucha Leather to breathe new life into what was previously junk destined for the waste bin. We also use resins to ensure that your new piece has the best possible extended experience.
All photography is done by our small team. We do our absolute best to ensure that the photo's that make it to the website shows the product as accurately as possible and for that reason do minimal editing. That said, we are not professional photographers, and colours may vary.Return Policy
