 Recycled Accessories by Christiane Diehl Christiane Diehl is a jill-of-all trades; in addition to her line of recycled rubber jewelry, Diehl also dabbles in landscaping and photography. The rubber used in Christiane Diehl’s jewelry line comes from reclaimed bicycle tubes and air mattresses. Diehl cuts the rubber into tiny pieces and strings them together by hand. In these pieces by Christiane Diehl, the rubber’s properties appear transformed. I don’t see an old bicycle tire, but a strip of grosgrain ribbon or delicate fringe fabric instead.  Through her work in landscape architecture, photography, and jewelry design, Christiane reveals a deep interest in the significance of everyday details. Her rubber jewelry exemplifies this work– proving that everyday, and often overlooked, material can be transformed into something unique and unusual with a bit of creativity.
