Matariki feather and star earrings, up-cycled

To celebrate the introduction of a brand new public holiday for Matariki, we’ve teamed up with @remixplastic to bring you these cute limited edition earrings, made almost entirely from waste that would have been destined for landfill: Laser cut mottled stars made from 3D printer waste are paired with hand crafted feathers made from bicycle tire inner tubes. Seven holes symbolise the seven sisters from Maori mythology.

The celebrations of our Aotearoa/New Zealand New Year are linked to the appearance and position of the Matariki star constellation in our skies, also known as the Pleiades. Matariki marks a time to reflect on the year that has past and take time to appreciate what we have.

Every star and feather is unique with its own colours and blemishes, and we celebrate their uniqueness, as we hope you do!

Star size: 15mm. Feather size: 55mm. Hypoallergenic hooks

We ship plastic-free.
