This is the original Silver Goose.

I've always loved jewellery.

My thing has been to buy a pair of earrings everywhere I've travelled.

I have a beautiful pair of jade Maori fish hooks from Queenstown, NZ; little silver and coral stone earrings from Peru; titanium frogs from Darwin and lots of others I have collected over the years.

So it was an easy transition to making Sterling silver jewellery once I had done a short course at Adelaide’s Jam Factory.

While I was doing the course I saw the most amazing sculpture in the window of the Jam Factory shop. It was a goose in black boots and the boots were on backwards.

It was cute, funky and out there.

I loved it.

I wondered how this might work in silver and decided to make a brooch for myself to try it out.

I think he came out well and I love him...

While he’s not for sale (well the original isn’t) he was part of the inspiration to sell my fun and quirky silver creations.

You can buy one of our lovingly inspired creations or commission your own special ‘goose’ piece.
