KTCD Jewellery was born of a passion for recycling and beautiful jewellery. Kate began making jewellery from old CD's in 2018, developing her own process to create unique pieces that resemble Murano glass. Her curiosity of what could be created from reclaimed materials lead to the inclusion of more unusual and unexpected collections. At KTCD Jewellery you will find; compact discs, recycled bicycle inner tube, computer circuit boards, electric cable, wine cork and even Lego! All rescued from landfill and handcrafted to re-emerge as jewellery to treasure, from simple studs you can wear every day, to larger statement pieces.
I hand craft every single piece myself, all the earrings are very light and comfortable to wear - even the large, dramatic pieces.
There is so much waste in our world that goes into landfill or the oceans, this is my small contribution to repurposing some of that unwanted ‘rubbish’. I hope wearing my jewellery will bring you joy, not only from its beauty but also the feeling of wearing something that was unwanted now created into something new. I hope it will start a conversation about what we can reuse in our homes - even the packaging is recycled!
