I’m a recycled earring and I used to be a bike tube. While recycling bikes we had a lot of bike-tubes leftovers. Instead of throwing them away we chose to be part of the circular economy and made re-used upcycled jewelry. The tubes are collected at local bike shops all over Amsterdam and then cut into these awesome feather earrings! We believe that everything should be made out of used materials so we create a sustainable world with responsible products. Luckily we’re not the only ones, Iamsterdam is now also selling the Chain-up as a recycled souvenir in the Iamsterdam Store (https://www.iamsterdam.com/en/i-amsterdam-store).
After reading this ready to give yourself a recycled present or give this sustainable gift to a friend? Then feel welcome to be part of The upcycle Community by purchasing the Feather Up – Upcycled Earrings!
