The Garbage Pin - Ana Cardim

I don't feature much jewellery but sometimes a design piece catches my eye. Ana Cardim has a slightly unusual yet very original approach to her craft. Her garbage brooch is a new way to look at our throwaway and overly consumer culture. It comes complete with garbage bag refills. How bizarre - while I like the concept, would you be happy to carry your trash around on display?


Now the book ring is a completely different matter. That is something I'd not only buy (for myself, for my friends, for my sister) but use! Ana, start selling please!
