Acacia

How can we revaluate waste as a resource, by creating jewelry that transforms “waste” into value?

Acacia earrings force viewers to reconsider the value of wood shavings. This often discarded byproduct has been the subject of sustainable reuse projects as packaging cushioning and animal bedding, but Acacia highlights individual shavings as objects of beauty, discouraging thoughtless disposal.

Inspiration / reference material for integrating wood and gold with plant motifs.
