Merlin Skateboards Earrings
These earrings are crafted from leftover skateboard wood, sourced directly from the Merlin Skateboards workshop. The idea is simple: give a second life to unused scraps from handcrafted skateboard production by transforming them into original and sustainable accessories.
The material used is Canadian maple, known for its strength and lightness — the very same wood used in skateboard decks. Instead of ending up in the trash, these fragments are cut, sanded, and hand-shaped into small, unique pieces. Each pair of earrings therefore carries a piece of the story of the skateboard it once was.
The colorful layers visible in the wood come from the laminations that make up the board. They create ever-changing patterns and hues, making each piece one of a kind. Some pairs display bold, dynamic contrasts, while others feature more subtle tones. No combination is ever replicated, as every skateboard scrap has its own visual identity.
The available shapes vary by series: round, oval, geometric, or more organic. Careful sanding and finishing result in pieces that are smooth to the touch and pleasant to wear. The metal hooks are chosen for their quality and comfort, ensuring each pair is suitable for everyday use.
These earrings embody a responsible and local production approach. By repurposing wood scraps that would otherwise be discarded, they help reduce waste and promote more thoughtful consumption. Each piece is made in France, in a workshop that values short supply chains and handcrafted work.
Their style is both simple and distinctive. They can be worn daily to add a touch of color and authenticity to an outfit, or offered as a gift to someone who appreciates unique, eco-friendly creations. Their lightness makes them an easy and comfortable accessory to wear every day.
In short, these upcycled skateboard earrings are the result of artisanal, local, and responsible craftsmanship. They combine a technical, durable material with a clean, practical design — each pair telling its own story and carrying its own identity. More than just an accessory, they represent a sustainable and original alternative in the world of jewelry.
