Jewelry from recycled post-consumer tin cans.

Harriete Estel Berman makes jewelry from the discards of our consumer society recycled "tin" containers and post consumer plastic. In this dramatic and colorful jewelry, the colors, the patterns, and the words taken from post consumer materials symbolize our personal search for identity in our material culture. Bar codes and brand name material from post-consumer tin containers recycle our unconscious consumption of advertising, marketing, and possession as identification. The materials are not as precious as gold or silver but in many ways reflect more accurately the values of our society.

Every piece of jewelry is one-of-a-kind from post-consumer packaging, tin cans, and post-consumer plastic waste from take out trays to shampoo bottles. There are no multiples.

“Just Released, 1045 Hours Free!” Bracelet

$1,247.00

“Just Released, 1045 Hours Free!” Bracelet fabricated from post consumer tin cans. Social commentary explodes with the printed tin from vintage AOL. Since when has there ever been hours free? Imagine "no credit card required."

All of my work is one-of-a-kind and this is no exception. It's one of my favorite bracelets.

Details include curved pinked edges. 3/4” thick.
Reverse side: Thurber red cherries, vintage design with crème scrollwork. Outside edge has a green jungle foliage which is a compliment to the abstract animal print.

inside wrist uses Oreo cookies against red. The wrist is round with brass rivets on one side. It is medium size. Super easy to wear as this is a modest size. Fabulous on display. It can be standing on edge or hung on the wall.
