Wear a piece of innovation—our handmade African-shaped earrings upcycled from computer motherboards blend tech and tradition for a bold, eco-friendly statement! 

Material: These earrings are made from internal motherboards and other discarded computer components. They come in a variety of colors, including red, green, blue, and black. 

Artist: Aubrey, a member of the Upcycle Creative community, does incredible work upcycling old computers. As a highly skilled craftsman, he can create almost any shape required. Before shaping, the motherboards are carefully sanded down to remove capacitors and any dangerous parts. Using a jewelry saw, he carefully cuts the motherboards by hand into various shapes. Motherboards are made of hard fiberboard and are not easy to cut.  Each earring is handcrafted, with Aubrey pouring his heart into every piece, even though the process is time-consuming.   By purchasing these unique items, you help sustain income generation for Aubrey, allowing him to continue developing his skills while making a positive impact on the environment. 

Environmental impact:  Upcycling computer motherboards into products like earrings has a significant positive environmental impact. By repurposing electronic waste, which is typically non-biodegradable and harmful to the environment, we reduce the strain on landfills and minimize the need for new raw materials. Turning discarded components into stylish, useful items like earrings helps promote a circular economy, cutting down on both e-waste and the energy required for manufacturing new products. This creative form of recycling not only helps preserve natural resources but also raises awareness about sustainable consumption and reducing our environmental footprint.
