Glamorous, intellectual and ecofriendly jewels: Amoronia

Every Amoronia piece is truly special, with a character of its own - one of a kind or made in very limited numbers.
 

What you see here is the result of her efforts to recycle as much as she can, at the same time ensuring the quality and personality of every piece she make, without compromise.

Set of Two (2) Geometric Bamboo Wooden Bangles with Recycled Carpet Prints -Red Pair

 

Her name is Demi. In Greek it means 'Earth Mother'. When she was five, she made her first necklace out of mud, and by the time she was eleven she had already designed her first jewelry line.

Because she care about the world, and because she like a nice challenge, her inventory consists mostly of old pieces of jewelry, things that people bring to her, found objects, old clothes or accessories, vintage buttons, papier mache, bamboo, old books, magazines and so on.

Both ideas and sensations inspire her. For her, cheap things like buttons and found objects can be as precious as expensive stones. Everything is in the idea or the sensation the final piece conveys, in the message it communicates, and mediums are just tools.

Jewelry recycled and vintage finds: Alex Keller

Alex Keller is an artist living and creating in Tucson, Arizona.

Her passion is beauty. It encompasses fashion, art and design. In her corner of the world, she has channeled it into making jewelry. Her line, Jewelry Recycled, was inspired at the jewelry counter of a resale shop. It includes antique, vintage and resale jewelry that she has reconstructed into fresh and {new} pieces.

Her addiction is thrifting and antiquing. Vintage by Alex Keller started as a place to sell vintage jewelry. It has grown into a curation of housewares and décor that Alex would want for herself. These items stay with her for a time, are rediscovered, and make their way to new homes.
