Meet the Green Sea Turtle. Gliding through Australia's coastal waters for millions of years, this gentle giant gets its own spotlight here, printed in bold, layered colour on a piece of recycled acrylic, then cut and finished by hand into a lightweight pair of earrings.

Made with heart in Brisbane

These Green Sea Turtle Earrings are designed and made by Matt and Kylie, the husband-and-wife team behind Smyle Designs, a small Brisbane studio turning recycled plastic into colourful, wearable art. Smyle Designs is an official licensee of the Australian Made campaign, so this isn't just designed in Australia, it's certified made here too.

Good for you, good for the planet

Each pair is cut from recycled acrylic and finished with original artwork, so nothing new is made just to create something cute. It's a small way to wear your love of the ocean without costing the planet, and a nice bit of irony wearing a turtle made from repurposed plastic rather than the kind that ends up in one.

Proudly supporting WWF Australia

Smyle Designs is an official sponsor of WWF Australia (World Wide Fund for Nature), the organisation working to protect endangered species, including marine turtles, and their habitats. Every pair of Green Sea Turtle Earrings you buy helps contribute to that work.

The perfect gift, or a treat for you
