The Product:

Recycled glass never looked so good! Simple and a little elegant. You are SURE to get compliments on these cool earrings. And then you get to tell them the amazing story!

The Story:

The epitome of the 2nd Story! Taking this glass from previously used soda, beer and apple cider bottles, and shaping them into ornamental pieces of glass, tumbling them to make the edges smooth and wrapping in wire, is one of the very earliest skills we mastered.

Rich in the truth that “it isn't over till it’s over” these earrings have been consistently popular since the earliest days of 2nd Story Goods.

The Details:

-100% local materials

-85% recycled materials
