Painted Seed Earrings
Sweet hand-painted seed earrings in a vibrant array of colours, hand made by the women artists of the Tjanpi Desert Weavers
Every piece of Tjanpi seed jewellery is a unique piece of hand made wearable art. The artists collect gumnuts, quandongs, and ininti seeds. These seeds are native to central Australia and are only available in certain seasons.
Ininti is from the bats wing coral/bean tree (Erythrina Vespertilio), a plant that often features in Tjukurrpa (Dreaming) in the central desert region. The quandong is from the Santalum Acuminatum tree; the fruit of this tree has traditionally been used a food source for thousands of years. The gumnuts are from the various Eucalyptus trees in the region, and range in size depending on the type of tree.
Materials: natural, native seeds and acrylic paint.
Ear hooks: surgical stainless steel
