Recycled glass with ethical cotton and bamboo accessories.

Recycled glass, cotton and bamboo accessories harness the beautiful colours of nature. As well as being a joy to look at and comfortable to wear, our ‘Round again’ range of sustainable jewellery and accessories is kind on the planet. Bottle gem necklaces and bracelets are constructed with beads made from cut and tumbled pre-used glass. True to their original colours, they come in natural moss, peat and sherry tones or milky white and sea blue shades. Bottle rock ‘Ethereal Nature’ captures the hues of an ever changing sky and shifting shadows in a natural landscape while ‘Seascape’ evokes the many moods of the ocean.

Recycled glass can also be produced by heating waste glass until molten, when it can be dyed and made into a variety of beads in a wide range of attractive colours. Soft hand-made beads on cotton cord in three beautiful colour palletes of twelve; ‘Moving water’, ‘Four seasons’ and ‘Earth elements’, make a strikingly lovely presentation. Their adjustable ‘slide ties’ and range of natural hues make them suitable for any gender.

‘Soft Harmony’ is a selection of four multi-coloured necklace and bracelet designs, again all finished with attractive plaited adjustable tassel ties.

Fans have become increasingly popular in recent years as people experience more extreme heat in many parts of the world, if not always the U.K.! A recent addition to our collection here at Joe Cool, is a delightful bamboo and cotton model. Six vibrant traditional Indonesian print fabrics on a simple unadorned bamboo base make this one of our new favourites. A selection of bookmarks in the same prints make a natural gift accompaniment.

For something with more of an ‘urban vibe’, there are recycled chip and nugget beads. Chunky random shapes in bright white, red, yellow and blue make altogether more arty attire!
