Original designs are laser cut from Tasmanian timber and vibrant coloured acrylics and are then transformed into jewellery pieces - some are hand painted or decorated with beautiful patterned Japanese chiyogami. A lot of my designs are inspired from my love of Japanese culture and art and some of my products include origami cranes, koi fish, bamboo and cherry blossoms and many items are decorated with the paper I have sourced when travelling in Japan. Other designs are inspired from vintage and folk art and various current trends.
There is a line in the Aussie song - Waltzing Matilda: "Under the Shade of a Coolibah Tree". I'm an Australian artist creating Japanesey products hence the emergence of my Etsy store name - Under the Shade of a Bonsai Tree.

5 out of 5 starsAll i can say is WOW! I am so in love with these earrings! This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for! I have been trying to find earrings like these (these colours) for a good year or so now so when I saw them I couldn't resist! Well made and just beautiful. I cannot wait to wear them this Mother's Day weekend. Thank you so much 🌸💗

5 out of 5 starsAs usual, the quality of Shade of a Bonsai Tree earrings are amazing! As soon as I lay my eyes on this new edition of the Sakura earrings, I had to buy these as well! The violett color is amazing and I am in love with the semi-transparent part as well. Also, thank you very much for the extra gift!

Under the Shade of a Bonsai Tree
My name is Jacqueline and I live in beautiful Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. I started my business Under the Shade of a Bonsai Tree in 2008.
Original designs are laser cut from Tasmanian timber and vibrant coloured acrylics and are then transformed into jewellery pieces - some are hand painted or decorated with beautiful patterned Japanese chiyogami. A lot of my designs are inspired from my love of Japanese culture and art and some of my products include origami cranes, koi fish, bamboo and cherry blossoms and many items are decorated with the paper I have sourced when travelling in Japan. Other designs are inspired from vintage and folk art and various current trends.
There is a line in the Aussie song - Waltzing Matilda: "Under the Shade of a Coolibah Tree". I'm an Australian artist creating Japanese inspired products hence the emergence of my Etsy store name - Under the Shade of a Bonsai Tree.
My work has been featured in various publications in Tasmania, Australia and internationally including The Mercury, Catalogue Magazine. Frankie and Vogue UK.
Under the Shade of a Bonsai Tree has many stockists around Australia and are always seeking more for wholesale.

A bit about Jacqueline:
I live in Hobart with my German husband, 3 sons and 2 cats (Lagertha and Siegfried). We have a lovely home overlooking our beautiful city.
Spare time is a bit of a rarity but I do love travelling, No Lights No Lycra, live music, vegan food and art.
I also run some social media pages which promote the amazing art and design in Tasmania.
