Australian Willie Wagtail hand painted wood and sterling silver earrings.
About the Willie Wagtail:
These little black and white cuties have a long fanned tail that they wiggle while foraging. The are a fearless little songbird that stand up to much larger birds that come near their family. They build their webs from grass, spider webs, hair and fur and being very environmentally conscious, they re-use the materials for any running repairs.
They have a cheerful song, bundles of energy and a mischievous charm and can be found all over mainland Australia.
Did you know that the Willie Wagtail was part of the top 10 favourite Australian birds for 2025 ?
About the earrings:
You can NEVER have TOO many earrings !
Even better when they are Australian made. Couple that with the fact that these birdies are very on trend in their black and white plumage – they go with your favourite dress or great with a T & jeans.
These earrings are designed, laser cut, hand painted and assembled personally by me in our little studio and workshop (aka converted front bedroom and lovely workshoppy space at the end of our garage) using Australian made blackwood ply, Australian made Sterling silver and non-toxic water-based acrylic paints.
