Eco conscious jewellery handmade by Helen using cork and recycled silver
Cube Root Jewellery is an eco-conscious jewellery brand, each piece has been designed and handcrafted in North East England by Helen. Using recycled silver as her main material, Helen’s pieces are inspired by her love of the simple geometries and textures found within the natural environment. As well as creating delicate silver pieces, Cube Root Jewellery also uses sustainable cork fabric to explore subtle colours and pattern.
“My silver pieces are made using silver clay which, once fired, produces 99.9% pure silver. I am always aiming to reduce my impact on the environment whenever I am able. All my packaging is plastic free and I try to create as little waste as possible. One of the unique qualities of working with silver clay is that even the fine silver dust leftover from sanding can be collected and reused.
I have recently been working on some ‘Wear 3 Ways’ stud earrings which came from a reaction to our throw-away society and how simple design could increase the life or use of a single object. The minimal silver studs can be worn on their own for everyday wear or combined with the coloured cork disk for a more statement piece.
All my cork pieces are produced using sustainable Portuguese cork fabric, non toxic glue and are 100% vegan.
Thank you for visiting my Etsy shop! I hope you love my jewellery as much I loved making it!”
