Jacaranda Earrings - Three Rivers

The Jacaranda Three Rivers earrings are individually hand-made and painted from the jacaranda seed pods that fall naturally from the jacaranda tree. The pods are gathered, split and carefully hand painted before being finished with gloss and sterling silver hooks. 

In traditional Aboriginal art places of meeting or connection are usually marked as a circle or set of concentric circles, symbolling places, people, bush tucker, land and waterways. The artworks are depicted from an aerial view, like looking down on a map.

Three Rivers represents Wiradjuri Country. “Wiradjuri” means people of three rivers.'
