Design Description

End Of An Era is a captivating fusion of style and sustainability, crafted from the very material that poses a threat to our oceans, plastic milk bottle caps. Made with over 1,500 milk bottle caps, the design is adorned with three lines of clear bottle caps, symbolizing the ‘new era’ of milk bottle caps, as most brands have discontinued green tops to make them more accessible to recycling. The sound it creates when worn – a gentle echo reminiscent of water, a poignant reminder of the creatures we harm in our oceans due to our relentless use of plastic.

Materials Used: 

1,323 green bottle caps and 137 clear bottle caps
