Details Handmade in Tasmania from sustainably sourced bamboo and glass with hypoallergenic stainless steel posts. This unique design is created from our photograph of an alpine finger orchid, taken at Mt Field National Park, Tasmania (Australia) Earring size: 16 mm Comes in a beautiful gift box StoryGrowing up in Hobart, the nearby Mt Field National Park has always held a special place in my heart. It’s almost like a “Best Of Tasmanian Wilderness” only 50 minutes from the capital city. The Tarn Shelf, in the alpine reaches of the park exudes a primeval atmosphere. Offsetting the rocks, small lakes and twisted Pencil Pines, delicate orchids like the Alpine Finger Orchid (Caladenia Alpina) emerge in the sheltered areas of the Tarn Shelf. I chose to photograph this stunning orchid as it evokes one of the defining aspects of Tasmania’s landscape; delicate beauty flourishing in a seemingly hostile environment.Alpine Finger Orchid Collection We also have other matching pieces in this orchid design to create a lovely set, or if you prefer a different style.
