Native Botanical Earrings

Description

Stunning, unique earrings handcrafted from recycled aluminium and feature my original etchings printed directly onto the metal surface.

As a printmaker specialising in traditional etching, I have always been drawn to metal as a material. Aluminium offers the perfect balance of beauty and practicality—it’s incredibly lightweight, comfortable to wear, and easy to travel with. With every pair, I saw each earring by hand, then carefully shape, file, and sand to create a smooth, rounded finish. I deliberately soften the edges of the metal so that each piece resembles a miniature etching plate, echoing the traditional printmaking processes that inspire my work.

Lightweight, sustainable, and full of character, these wearable artworks celebrate the connection between contemporary jewellery and traditional printmaking. All of my jewellery pieces feature sterling silver findings and comes beautifully wrapped in custom eco tissue paper.
