DARK MOFO Has definitely kicked of in Hobart!! It’s very exciting! DARK MOFO makes the city and now many surrounding areas come alive in winter with a warm red glow and so much art and excitement in a time when we would otherwise feel be feeling the dead of winter and be hibernating inside by the fire. Celebrating this I made this pair of Garnet earrings! The large rough half garnet crystals are from the Erongo Mountains in Namibia and the round sparkly garnets are from the Northern Territory, Australia and found by my Friend and long time Gem supplier Darren from @dazlyngems . In fitting with the rough crystals I have made the Sterling Silver settings rugged and tool marked with an antiqued finish and added Gold hooks for a warm look. The are on display @findcollective in the heart of the @salamancaartscentre Hobart, just across the road from the Winter Feast and all the MOFO action. Drop in for a look if you are there! #darkmofo2019 #darkmofo #hobart #tasmania #handcraftedjewellery #garnetcrystal #garnet #australiangemstones #earrings #darkness #handmade #winter #paintthetownred
