Found Plastic Jewelry



Client: Amrita Takhar (link)
Type: Jewelry
Material: : Salvaged Plastic
Technique: Laser cutting

Designer Amrita Takhar asked Prototope to cut pieces of found plastic to be used in the creation of a line of jewelry she had designed. The plastic was salvaged from various automobile parts—reflectors, tail light covers, etc. The unusual shapes were each individually cut from the odd shapes of plastic, in locations identified by Takhar. The cut pieces were then finished and assembled by Takhar.
