Though Perseus’ act of beheading of Medusa is heralded as a heroic act, one wonders if the story also reflects a tragedy, of silencing women who were deemed to powerful and offers a cautionary tale about the consequences of patriarchal suppression.

Dinky Earrings jewellery are handmade, funny looking and delicate, with natural cracks and dents. From fruits evoking picnics to strawberry sandwiches, tuctucs, and vintage cars, this earrings series reminisces for an imaginary, dreamlike summer. Dinky Earrings embraces gaudiness, lumpiness, bright colours, gems, and the colourful childhood naïveté that still makes a home in people of all ages.

• Gold plated brass parts and pewter hooks

• handpainted resin sculptures

• one-of-a-kind glass droplets (freshwater pearls or unique glass beads created exclusively for Dinky Earrings)

Please avoid water as these are delicate resin pieces. As each earring pair is handmade and handpainted in limited quantities, they will all be unique and not as pictured. The photograph is only a sample of the jewellery.
