We aren’t exaggerating when we say that we harassed, cajoled, begged and pleaded with glass artist extraordinaire Kristin McFarlane to be a part of Moose. Thank my old high school, John Curtin, whose motto was ‘Persevere and Advance’. And it’s not just because she’s an international award winner who has exhibited everywhere twice and in her spare time designs the trophies for the Australian of the Year awards, it’s because….well…….look at the work!
Kristin manages to combine her sublime glass skills with some amazing typography and graphics – all designed by her super-talented self.
We imagine that anyone who receives the Australian of the Year award feels pretty proud of themselves on the day, but we imagine that having the trophy to look at each day that follows is a pretty special feeling too.
So, we were beyond ecstatic when poor Kristin finally buckled under the weight of our begging and sent over some of her gorgeous pendants. Now everyone’s a winner! (And Kristin gets a break).
A little while ago e got wind of some amazing new pieces coming out of Sydney duo Lola & Bailey, whose work we have been huge fans (and big stockists) of since Day One. Well, the rumours were TRUE. And STUNNING. Naturally, we went nuts ordering the gorgeous Sundial range – as well as some new Dial D pendants – and they can all be viewed and drooled over by clicking on the links below…
We know we know – so much for the constant updates! Trust us, though, when we say we have been very busy of late, as our PO Box overflows with boxes and boxes of new and exciting work from our amazing stable of artists, as well as entirely new collections from some brand new additions to our list of ‘moose-keteers’. So, what’s new? Well, we’ve got oodles of new jewellery, starting with a brilliant new range from our beloved Cat-Rabbit, who proudly presents The Non-Fiction Library.
Each piece is strictly Limited Edition, and they each come numbered and in their own little box for safe keeping (when you’re not flaunting them shamelessly to everyone you know). We’ve always been big big fans of Cat Rabbit, and this new collection of brooches and necklaces in hand-painted wood, certainly doesn’t disappoint.
More soon!
