Description
Featuring an array of Australian Native Flowers including bottlebrush, wattle, banksia, eucalyptus flowers, protea and flannel. Matched in either a block colour or abstract pieces to complete the final earrings.
Around this time annually when we see the blossoming of the Wattle filling our neighbourhoods and highways, change or shift accompanies it. That is at least true for me.
It is something I have noticed for a couple of years now; I wonder if you can relate? But for me, something about the Wattle trees blossoming in its glorious yellow puff display brings me excitement and joy for what is next…
I started sculpting some these native earrings when the Wattle started to blossom and so, I believe this collection holds a lot of my excited energy in them. I wonder if you can tell!

Originally made in Wattle Woman studios in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The next online release will be created in Emerald, QLD.
The Artist
My name is Lili Jacobsen, but I am better known locally in my hometown of Bundaberg as Wattle Woman. I am a First Nations descendant of the Gubbi Gubbi and Torres Strait Islander people living on Meanjin Country in Brisbane now. However, I am on a new deadly travelling adventure in Emerald currently and running Wattle Woman on the road!
I have been a practicing Artist for 5 years; I have specialised in sculpting with polymer clay. I take inspiration from the beauty and power of the Australian Flora and Fauna and my mixed Indigenous Australian heritage when creating my work.
Each pair I create holds a piece of my spirit, energy and story within them, making all my handcrafted earrings unique and precious. I’m dedicated to reconnecting my hands to my mind and spirit; this is the product of such practice. Please wear with pride!
