Artisan Craftsmanship

Each earring is hand-carved from totumo, a dried calabash shell traditionally used in Colombian craft. The shells are carefully boiled, dried, hand-carved and polished before being shaped into intricate jewellery designs. 

The peacock’s flowing tail is enhanced with fine tassels, adding softness and elegant movement, while delicate crystal details bring a subtle shimmer that catches the light beautifully.

Often described as hand-carved calabash shell art, this technique transforms natural materials into refined, expressive jewellery that feels both bold and lightweight.

Ethical & Sustainable Fashion

Handmade using traditional techniques, these earrings reflect a commitment to slow fashion and responsible craftsmanship. Every pair embodies eco-conscious, sustainable luxury while celebrating Colombia’s natural beauty.

Questions and answers

FAQ

Are our pieces comfortable? Suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes — our pieces are lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear, and generally suit everyone. Our recycled inner-tube jewellery has metal-free fastenings, ideal if you react to metals. Our earrings are finished with sterling silver, surgical stainless steel, or brass hooks — nickel-free and kind to even sensitive ears. Please note that our rubber pieces are made from reclaimed inner tubes, so they are not suitable 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 is waterproof and hard-wearing; simply wipe clean. Recycled inner-tube and army-canvas bags are water-resistant. Recycled wood and skateboard pieces — keep dry and wipe with a soft cloth. Recycled brass develops a natural patina; buff with a polishing cloth to restore shine. Resin — wipe clean and keep away from prolonged heat. Recycled bike chain — keep dry and wipe after contact with water.

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.
