A statement necklace with a lot of interesting found objects.
The pendant is a black plastic measuring gauge of some sort. I’ve had it for years, never could decide what to create with it until now. I don’t know its original purpose, but it sure makes a cool necklace.
I paired it with a reused black wire, tractor inner tube, matte black chains & a found object.
Necklace length 16”
Multi strands of chain
Scrap tractor inner pieces
Pendant size 3.25” dia.
Adjustable up to 2”
All metals are base metals

RURAL ROOTS + SLOW STYLE ART
I’m a self-taught artist from Minnesota-you betcha!! I enjoy taking discarded materials & creating them into new means of usefulness. My choice of medium is tractor & bicycle inner tubes along with found objects of interest.
My art is a slow style jewelry & handbag atelier founded in 2008, my focus is ethically crafted in timeless silhouettes that contain boldness & driven by my passion to be uncommon. I don’t do cookie-cutter!
All my styles are 100% handmade to be minimal waste-meaning only small amounts of the inner tube are left over after cutting, sewing & assembling my work. I believe that having a propose in creating my art softens the carbon footprint we leave behind. Together we can make a conscious choice to stand for our values.
Black is my happy color!
