Making an ecological statement, Guatemalan artisan Julio Molina uses recycled palo blanco and trumpet tree wood to create these dangle earrings. Each circular earring is crafted from wood and given a red finish, featuring intricate geometric cutwork that forms star patterns. These earrings swing from hooks of sterling silver. Says the artisan, "I love being able to create these earrings. They are totally unique. I believe that with these pieces we can be conscious of the great cutting of trees that is affecting our ecosystem."

Crafted with refined handblown techniques, these dangle earrings create a geometric illusion under a red veil. Thai artisan Alexx Cheng draws inspiration from the region's romantic springs to make the pair—further enhanced with pink glass beads and comfortable sterling silver posts.

Like twin harvest moons rising through an autumn sky, these luminous disc earrings glow with the warmth of fire and the soul of sustainability. Guatemalan artisan Rosario Leiva breathes new life into discarded CDs through an alchemical process that's equal parts precision and poetry: melting recycled fragments in custom molds, painting them with carefully placed acrylic droplets in burnt orange, crimson and golden olive, then wielding a blow torch to fuse it all into translucent perfection. The organic air bubbles trapped within create mesmerizing patterns that shift and shimmer with every movement, while delicate textures ripple across the surface like echoes of the original disc. Dangling from sterling silver hooks, these eco-friendly statement pieces prove that sometimes the most radiant beauty comes from reimagining what others have left behind.
