Description
Choose a single melon seed bracelet with an adjustable cord, or the double wraparound version on a stainless steel base. Wear nature, look great and be kind to the world! A perfect gift for sustainable, ethical souls and vegan friends.
These earrings are created by hand using cantaloupe melon seeds. The melon seeds have been coloured using natural plant extracts, spices and food colourants. They are dried out in the hot Colombian sun and individually threaded onto the steel base. Some variations in shape and colour occur and we feel this is part of the magic and reminds us to celebrate nature’s creations by the human touch.
Alex and his family made these earrings, you can learn more about them here

As we use mainly natural materials it is important that we care for them best we can. We have tried things like adding resin to our melon seed jewellery – which does make them more resistant – but it takes away from the natural yumminess of them!
Tamo – Due to the natural colourants used in dying the wheat and natural fibres, these need to be displayed away from direct sunlight – which could cause the colours to fade over a prolonged period. For cleaning, a brush (I use a clean paint brush), or a damp cloth can be used to wipe over the items.
Melon seed jewellery – Avoid submerging these pieces of jewellery in water for prolonged periods (– unless you planning on growing some melons). Washing your hand is fine, but when submerged over long periods (i.e. swimming, bath, washing up) the seeds become soft (normal for seeds) and are then more susceptible to damage until dry again. Store in a cool, dry place with airflow away from direct sunlight. Prolonged periods in direct sunlight could lead to fading of the natural dyes. A clean paint brush is a great way to give these a bit of a clean if needed.
Flower jewellery – These are pretty sturdy pieces of jewellery, you can swim, surf and sleep in them.
