Christiane Diehl-Recycled Rubber Jewelry
>> Tuesday, December 2, 2008
Christiane Diehl is a multi-faceted designer with one foot in jewelry, one in landscaping and one more in photography. Her unique line of jewelry features necklaces, bracelets and rings– all made from recycled rubber from bicycle tubes and air mattresses. Christiane Diehl, a talented and creative designer of landscapes and jewellery, has developed an array of sumptuous works using the rubber inner tubes used for bicycle wheels and other rubber bands. The results are tactile and extremely appealing and have interested cycling enthusiasts, designers and appreciators of good jewelry and design from all around the world.
From her Hanover, Germany studio, Christiane cuts tiny shapes out of these reclaimed materials and strings them together in to create these multi-dimensional and dynamic wonders.
Back in Germany I continued working with recycled materials, especially with inner bike tubes. I never thought this material had so much design substance. I can’t stop to touch it!
Worn with attitude these pieces make a bold statement.
Here are some of her designs
