This necklace is one-of-a-kind, giving new birth to shredded skateboards and a new look to anyone who wears it. Tara Locklear uses upcycled skateboards to make the components of her jewelry, meaning the segments of this necklace have been "radically" distressed by the grinds, flips, slides, skitches, and swerves involved in skateboarding. Reversible!
Approximately: 18"
Skateboard wood and Sterling silver
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.”
