Zinc White

Zincwhite comprises of Lidia and Paul who have combined their skills in fine art and architecture to create this upcycling project. They design and handcrafted jewellery and fashion accessories in their Huddersfield workshop. ’We use recycled Derwent colouring pencils for one of our ranges of jewellery. The waste pencils are taken straight from the factory and we transform them into our unique pieces. The hardwoods used in some of products are often tropical and are salvaged from building sites. Our aim is to change the way society thinks about waste and fashion’.
