Melbourne-based designer and jeweler Britta Boeckmann created these eco-friendly upcycled pieces of jewelry from materials such as wood and resin. The elegant collection brings forth a unique collaboration of versatile materials that is often overlooked.
By crafting each piece of jewelry this artist has been able to transform wood and resin into beautiful pendants, rings and earrings. What is even more remarkable is that the entire process is an organic system that eliminates the use of a template or any structured format. These free-styled accessories are all completely unique and original from the material source to the shapes and patterns.
Additionally, some of the pieces have been designed to hold glow-in-the-dark pieces of material to enhance each wearer's experience. The jewelry is sold under the brand name BoldB and can be found on Etsy.
