Ruby Over Red Earth (Ships Jan 27)
I’m excited to announce preorders are open for Ruby Over Red Earth, a special edition earring that affords you the opportunity to wear your solidarity with First Nations Australians, as well as raise $10,000 for Children's Ground. A First Nations not-for-profit organisation, Children's Ground has a 25 year plan to significantly improve the lives of the next generation of First Nations Australians. You can read about their vision here.
Like all my earrings, Ruby is crafted from environmentally-conscious stainless steel. There are two finishes, 14k gold or silver. While no metal is scratch-proof, stainless steel is more resistant to scratches and tarnishing than other metals, so these earrings will retain their striking beauty for the life of the metal. I’m thinking heirloom, never landfill. Hypoallergenic and environmentally conscious, they’re a thoughtful choice for those with sensitive skin, as well as anyone who values sustainability.
Each pair of Ruby Over Red Earth earrings is beautifully presented in a custom House of Whitty jewellery box. They also include a limited edition tiny distressed print of Ruby, using metallic foil on soft matt heavy stock. All packaging is made from recycled and recyclable materials, reflecting my commitment to a greener planet. Your earrings will arrive carefully protected and fully insured.
It’s my hope that these earrings will generate conversations about why January 26 isn't a date to celebrate for many Australians. I explain why in this video that shows the Ruby Over Red Earth mural being installed in Naarm/Melbourne. You can find the Clothing The Gaps petition mentioned in the video here.
Thanks,
Tom
