Molly M. bamboo earrings
Bamboo is one of the most sustainable materials for clothing manufacturers to use. So it makes sense that the jewelry world would want to get in on the eco-action too!Molly M. Laser Cut Jewelry has a "botanical," section on her website, which feature earrings and pendants made of bamboo. Other materials she uses for her jewelry collection also include felt and wool made salvaged from surplus army clothing and suede reclaimed from second hand jackets.
Molly says her inspirations are her mom's garden and autumn in Berkley. Almost all the designs are based off of patterns found in nature like skylines, water patterns or even the composition of branches. That's what makes the jewelry so unique.
Starting at about $35 for a pair of earrings, the prices are reasonable. And I really think you'd be hard pressed to find eco-jewelry elsewhere that's as original and beautiful as Molly's.
