Crafting Wooden Earrings Inspired by Nature
At Sjarel Handmade Jewellery, I’ve always been passionate about creating handcrafted wooden earrings that are inspired by the beauty of nature. Living in South Australia, I’m surrounded by landscapes that fuel my creativity. Each pair of earrings I design is carefully made using natural materials, and every piece reflects the love and care I put into the craft.
Choosing Sustainable Woods for Timeless Elegance
The process of creating these unique pieces starts with selecting the finest woods, like River Redgum, Purple Heart, and Mallee Burl. I make sure to work with sustainably sourced materials because it's important to me that my work not only looks beautiful but also respects the environment. Each wood has its own character, with rich natural hues and intricate grains that make every pair of earrings one of a kind.
The Art of Handcrafting Earrings
Once I’ve chosen the wood, the real fun begins! Using techniques like bentwood and woodturning on the lathe, I shape, sand, and polish each earring by hand. There’s something incredibly satisfying about seeing a piece come together, knowing that no two are ever alike. I take pride in making sure that the natural beauty of the wood shines through, allowing the materials to speak for themselves. For me, perfection is always in the details.
Nature as My Muse
Inspiration is never far away, and I often draw on the landscapes and colors around me. The Autumn Sunburst earrings, for example, are one of my favorite designs. They capture the warmth and glow of the changing seasons, just like the vibrant sunsets I see here in South Australia. I love being able to create wearable art that reminds people of nature’s beauty.
Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Jewelry
Creating something beautiful that’s also eco-conscious is a priority for me. I don’t use any dyes or stains in my work, which allows the wood’s natural patterns and colors to come through. This means every pair of earrings is not only unique but also made with the environment in mind. I believe that sustainability should go hand in hand with craftsmanship.
