aoku 3D, an online retailer, has been taking steps to source unique 3D-printed jewelry from all around the world -- making for an expansive collection that displays the many designs that the high-tech production method is able to generate.
Included are a number of pieces which represent different forms of wildlife, including tigers, zebras, oxen, rats, goats, monkeys, pigs, dogs, roosters and even dragons -- many of which were made in representation of the Chinese zodiac.
Although the unique 3D-printed jewelry pieces are great accessories in themselves, the fact that aoku 3D donates a portion of each sale to environmental conservation efforts makes them especially worth buying; these organizations include WildAid and Orangutan Outreach.
