Earrings by Erin

By earringsbyerin - Posted on 24 July 2008

Jewelry became Erin's passion about 8 years ago when not being able to find a necklace to match an outfit, she decided to "give it a go" herself.

Stringing and crimping turned into wire wrapping and swirling 5 years later and since then, her penchant for top quality gemstones and Sterling Silver has also arisen.

Erin is increasingly influenced by New Zealand Maori art and carvings, and flora and fauna. She strives for clean, delicate, symmetrical, wearable jewelry - every piece she crafts is a piece she would personally wear.

She named one of her favorite wire motifs the "Koru", which is the New Zealand Maori name given to the new unfurling fern frond. It symbolises new life, growth, strength and peace. Noun is to fold, loop and coil - the basis of her designs.

A lab rat by day, Erin resides on the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia. Her other passions are Greyhound rescue and adoption, and horse riding.
