Brash and thrashed but beautiful: these one-of-a-kind cufflinks by Tara Locklear are comprised of cut gems made from upcycled skateboards. Distressed by a life of grinds, flips, slides, and slams, Locklear's jewelry upholds the glory from the grit, with each piece being a physical representation of its own dynamic history.

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.”
