Our Skateboard Jewellery is made using broken and damaged skateboards that were destined for the rubbish. The colours of each board differ depending on the brand and design of each skate company. Most skateboards are made from 7plys of Canadian Rock Maple, and the rainbow colours are the way they're made! All the skateboards are cut, sanded and finished by hand. They are coated with a VOC-free sealer that gives a glossy finish and keeps the colours bright. All our pieces come with care instructions, and our distinctive recycled paper packaging made using recycled Australian skate magazines.
Round Bracelet- Our bracelets are light to wear, and make a sweet sound as they clink together on your wrist. We make our bracelets in three sizes, depending on wrist size. We classify the colour of our bracelets based on the main block colour on the top side of the board; the other side has different images depending on the design that was on the board. We can send you certain colours (depending on the boards we have available), or a rainbow assortment. They are all beautiful and look great as a stacked collection on display!
Bracelet Octagon – Our round bracelets are so happy to have these new 8-sided friends to play with. Just as stackable as the round ones, these are a great addition to an armful of our bracelets or perfect on their own.
Necklace Triangle Pendant - Each piece is cut from the off cuts of our other pieces, and sanded to show off the rainbow ply layers. The Triangle Pendents differ slightly in size, but are approx 4.5cm across the top. Each piece is a one-off, but they are similar and equally as beautiful. They come in an assortment of colours, depending on the decks we have to work with. Antique-look chain, with solid brass parrot clasp, hangs approx 55cm long, and sits mid-chest.
Necklace Triangle Shard – These triangles are made from the edges of the boards, using the off cuts of our bracelet pieces. They are shaved away to show off the stunning colour layers, creating a beautiful and striking triangle. Antique-look chain with solid brass parrot clasp, these hang approx 55cm long.
NOTE: Necklace minimum order is 5, this can be made up of a combination of our necklaces, rather than one style only.
Necklace - Allsorts – These beautiful bead necklaces make for an eye-catching statement piece that is easy to wear and versatile. Each bead is hand cut leaving the original graphics and patterns, while showing off the layers of ply. Strung on waxed cotton cord and threaded with brass beads, the necklaces are adjustable in length up to approx 3545cm. Available on black or natural cord. Available in 5 beads, 7 beads or 9 beads.
Earrings – Studs – These fun little studs will add the perfect finishing touch to any outfit, without showing off too much! Showing the patterned graphic or plain bold coloured side. Small – 12mm diameter. Large – 22mm diameter. (Please specify what size you’d like, or we can send you an assortment of both). Backing is surgical steel with butterfly clasp.
Keyring – Made using the best bits of each board, no two keyrings will be the same. Each one features a specially cut piece of image, design or picture from the scraps of our broken boards. The hardest thing is choosing only one. 28mm diameter with a silver keyring chain. These are sturdy and strong for a full set of keys, let light weight enough to not pull your pants down! Wholesale $6 (ex GST), Suggested Retail $12 (These do not come in the stitched paper packaging, but do have a swing tag).
