Crafted from high-quality epoxy resin, our jewelry pieces are a testament to our exceptional artistic process. We employ a one-of-a-kind technique, delicately embedding Dutch gold or silver leaf, resulting in truly distinctive creations.
Not only are our pieces remarkably unique, but they also offer an exquisite blend of lightness and durability. This unique combination ensures that our jewelry is not only a joy to wear but also a statement of lasting beauty.

The main motif of this painting depicts the wakirlpirri / dogwood tree.
Wakirlpirri is a very useful tree that grows on the sides of creek beds and near mulga trees. The seeds of this tree can be eaten raw or cooked on the fire. A deliciously sweet drink called yinjirrpi is made from the seeds when they have been dried. The wood can be used to make weapons such as karli / boomerangs and dancing boards for ceremonies. It is also good wood for burning on the fire because rain cannot extinguish burning Wakirlpirri wood.
In contemporary Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, particular sites and other elements.
This Jukurrpa travels from Jarrarda-Jarrayi through to Puturlu, Mount Theo, west of Yuendumu.
This Jukurrpa belongs to Japanangka/Japangardi men and to Napanangka/Napangardi women.

Every piece is meticulously crafted to order, offering you a diverse range of options. This approach aligns with our commitment to sustainability, as we eliminate excess stock and prioritize your unique preferences.
