We love Urban Lace Jewelry for so many reasons. Not only is the jewelry delicate, distinct and perfect for a cocktail party, but it also takes eco-friendly accessories to a whole new level.
Made with the planet in mind, the bracelets, necklaces, earrings and masks are constructed from used bicycle tires that designer Barbi Touron and her partner Aaron Shear get from bike shops.
Barbi started designing jewelry in her basement in 2006 for her friends, and with a little word of mouth, her designs caught on and are now available online.
An added plus with your purchase is that Barbi and Aaron will donate a portion of the proceeds each year to an environmental education group of their choosing.
Prices of jewerly range from $34.99 to $49.99.
