Description

These earrings were designed by the late Mrs. C. Djiagween.
Mrs. D was an esteemed Yawruru and Jabirr Jabirr Elder who was one of the founding members of Nagula Jarndu.
With her family’s permission we continue to celebrate her life through the legacy of her art.
Helicopter seeds are a common sight here in The Kimberley, they are great fun for children to throw up into the air and watch them spin and spin to the ground.
They measure approx. 7cm in length and have a bamboo wood top with a gold mirror main design.
All our earrings use stainless steel, nickel free findings.

NAGULA JARNDU WOMEN’S ART & RESOURCE CENTRE

Nagula Jarndu (Saltwater Woman) is a Not for Profit incorporated body with a membership of 120 Indigenous women and is governed by 7 Yawuru women Directors.
Yawuru Jarndu first started operating in 1987 when it was established as an Indigenous women’s resource centre by Yawuru women, with the aim of recording oral history and preserving Yawuru language and culture.

The organisation evolved into an arts and textiles business, offering training in screen printing and dressmaking, producing fabrics for clothing and homewares, designed and made by local Indigenous artists. A retail outlet was established in 1998 called Nagula Jarndu Designs which proved a successful venture. Specialising in textiles, every piece of work is an original.
