Eco-friendly and Vegan Upcycled Necklace
Turn heads sustainably with our Dandellion Necklace — a sculptural statement piece handcrafted from reclaimed rubber inner tubes. Inspired by the airy, exploding form of dandelion seed heads, this bold collar reinterprets natural beauty into wearable art with an eco-conscious edge.
Each necklace is carefully hand-cut by skilled artisans in Indonesia from rubber that would otherwise end up in landfill. The result is a lightweight, flexible piece that drapes like leather, looks striking on, and treads gently on the planet.
Whether you’re layering for a creative office look or accessorising for a night out, the Dandellion brings playful architectural elegance that always gets noticed.

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.
