I've recently become fascinated with old book covers as a jewelry material. It fits right in with my adaptive reuse philosophy, so I've created a separate line of Ex Libris book pieces.
The designs and colors are limited to the books I have on hand, so if you see something you like, grab it before it's gone.
This particular pair comes from a a couple of vintage Readers Digest condensed books.
Each piece is sawed by hand, filed, finished smooth and then waxed to protect from moisture. (These are, however, essentially pieces of paper, so do not wear them in the shower!) The rectangular ear wires are hand made from surgical stainless steel wire.
All adaptive reuse and Ex Libris pieces come to you neatly displayed on a card and sustainably wrapped ready for gift-giving.
Please contact me if you have any other questions.
Follow me on Instagram for all the latest designs to come off my bench @christineterrell and sign up for exclusive early access to weekly collection releases every Friday at noon.
I’ve recently partnered with the non-profit One Tree Planted. $1 from your order today will plant a tree somewhere on the globe.
