Sustainable Inner Tube Earrings
Violet flowers have many beautiful meanings: they are popular as flowers of modesty and as a sign of everlasting affection. We have recreated beautiful violet flowers into an elegant, beautiful and lasting pair of eco-friendly upcycled earrings. The intricate detailing is all hand cut by a skilled artisan, making this unique piece of jewellery even more special. A matching necklace and bracelet are also available.
Handmade using the reclaimed rubber of tyre inner tubes, the earrings are made in a way which is both cruelty-free and environmentally-friendly. The reclaimed rubber is a great leather alternative, due to their similar textures and unique patterns.

FAQ
Questions and Answers
Are they comfortable? Are they suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes — our pieces are super lightweight, comfortable, and make a real statement, so they're easy to wear all day. The fastenings are metal-free, which makes them a great choice if you react to metals or have a nickel allergy.
Please note: as our rubber pieces are made from reclaimed inner tubes, they're not recommended for anyone with a latex allergy.
How do I care for my piece? Is it waterproof?
It depends on the material:
• Recycled inner-tube jewellery – waterproof and hard-wearing; just wipe clean.
• Recycled inner-tube & army-canvas bags – water-resistant; they'll handle everyday weather, but as the zips and seams aren't sealed we'd avoid heavy rain or submersion.
• Recycled wood & skateboard – keep dry and wipe with a soft cloth; the grain and colour vary on every piece.
• Recycled brass – develops a natural patina; buff with a polishing cloth to restore shine.
• Resin – wipe clean; keep away from prolonged heat and direct sunlight.
• Recycled bike chain – keep dry and wipe after contact with water.
Looked after well, your piece is made to last
Will my item look exactly like the photos?
The design will be the same as pictured, but no two pieces are ever exactly alike — that's the beauty of handmade, upcycled materials. The threads and markings on each inner tube, the colours in every skateboard offcut, and the grain of each piece of wood are all different, making your piece genuinely one of a kind.
What is it made from?
Every Paguro piece is handcrafted from genuinely reclaimed materials — inner tubes from buses and trucks, recycled skateboards, reclaimed wood, recycled brass and more — given a second life by skilled artisans.
