Bottle Caps Fashion

by Jennifer Diana

Who needs expensive jewels and precious metals when there are millions of bottle caps being thrown away?  Yoav Kotik had this thought and was inspired to create jewelry out of the discarded objects. Items like bottle caps that have already served their purpose intrigued him most.

Collected from different cultures around the world, each bottle cap is cleaned and polished before his design process begins. Collection encompasses necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, rings, and cuff links.

Small shell design is created out of folded bottle caps interspersed with turquoise semi-precious stones.

He also creates necklaces in a bauble shape, creating beads out of the caps.

Hitting just about every jewelry category, Yuliz has an impressive collection of bracelets.

Both elastic stackable bangles and chain bracelets are created out of the shell design.

Bottle caps are naturally shaped for bold cocktail rings. Love this pretty pink graphic overlaid with blue outlined dove on the cap of a San-Benedetto bottle.

They are also well suited for cuff links. Guys and girls can get in on this fun jewelry design.

Love the high fashion style images he had taken of these everyday materials!

It’s amazing the assortment of bottle caps he has found. It must take a lot of searching to create multiples of these designs. Check out the entire collection here:
