Guy wire, tensioned cables used in construction to stabilise structures such as radio masts, cell phone towers utility poles and so on, is combined with copper joins to make simple aesthetic bracelets and earrings. Several thicknesses of cables are used in their unique designs. F3 Design’s stylish and highly durable jewelry is the work of an entire family of designers from New Zealand, the Wright-Stows - mother and father, Angela and Stuart and their grown kids, Pippin and Ella. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 29% | Activity: 25% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Upcycled Jewelry:** Creating jewelry using unconventional materials such as construction materials presents an opportunity for upcycled fashion trends. - **Industrial Chic:** The combination of construction materials and sleek design in jewelry highlights the growing trend of industrial chic aesthetics. - **Unisex Accessories:** Designing jewelry that appeals to both men and women taps into the rising demand for unisex fashion accessories. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Accessories:** Discovering innovative materials and designs for jewelry opens up new possibilities in the fashion accessories industry. - **Sustainable Fashion:** Incorporating upcycled materials into jewelry aligns with the sustainability movement within the fashion industry. - **Architecture and Construction:** Exploring alternative uses for construction materials in jewelry showcases potential disruptive innovations in the architecture and construction industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Handcrafted Jewelry Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pretty-weird.md) - [Flexible Fine Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mattia-cielo.md) - [Jewelry Display Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nihaarika-arora.md) - [Bread-Encrusted Gemstone Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rising-collection.md) - [Dynamic Bold Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiyu.md) - [Stunning Organic-Inspired Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organicinspired-jewelry.md) - [Metallic Jewelry-Inspired Store Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kalevala.md) - [Algorithm-Formed Modern Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sian-design.md) - [Organically Shaped Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levitas.md)
