Linda van Niekerk
Jewelry designer Linda van Niekerk is based in Tasmania, Australia.  This beautiful part of the world encourages the contemplation of natural beauty and inspires her creations.
 
A strong sense of place is evident in her work and has influenced the materials she includes in her pieces; she often combines silver with natural Tasmanian elements like driftwood and turned precious timbers.
 
This September Bini Gallery in Melbourne will showcase a collection of Linda’s bold, yet simple pieces crafted from turned Tasmanian timbers and works featuring driftwood found in the untamed Tasmanian wilderness.
 
“I would love this work to prompt contemplation of a precious natural resource.  However, irrespective of the inspiration I draw upon for my work, my desire is always for the wearer to be bold, proud and walk tall.” / Linda van Niekerk, Huon Valley, Tasmania
