They're glittery, they're grinded, they're gorgeously gritty! What was once a skateboard is now this pair of unique earrings. Aged and distressed through a "radical" process of kickflips, lipslides, and railgrinds, each piece of Tara Locklear's jewelry is one-of-a-kind, and sure to complete any look with its unique style and story! These dangles have been hand sanded and sealed with a linseed oil finish to retain the beautiful maple wood color and feel.
Approximately 0.5" x 0.75"
Skateboard wood, Paint, and Sterling silver and Stainless steel
From the Artist, Tara Locklear:
“The PopRoxx Collection, comprised of recycled broken skateboards and had fabricated sterling silver components, celebrates the story of each skateboard and it’s rider. The one-of-a-kind street patina and colorful graphic qualities of the boards inspire my designs. I carve and shape each piece of broken board to create my faceted skateboard gems. these are my Rubies and diamonds: that together with my sterling silver designs honor the history of each skateboard and represent my idea of modern statement jewelry.”
