Jewellery made out of bottle caps

CURA Jewellery is made from 100% recycled HDPE plastic, and gold and Silver/Rhodium plated brass components. The company was born out of a desire to use plastic by-products to create items that are not only beautiful, but also challenge our perceptions on waste and where we place value.

In 2019, volunteers during the International Coastal Cleanup Day collected 1,390,232 bottle caps during one single day.
