Desert treasure. Colourful seeds that Aboriginal women of Central Australia use to make beautiful necklaces. Jewellery is an important part of Aboriginal culture. Aboriginal women pick up these beautifully coloured beads when foraging for food. In olden times, seeds were pierced with hot sticks from ironwood trees & threaded onto human hair strings necklaces. Nowadays we use wire heated in the fire to burn the holes. When the necklace is worn it represents part of the land & connects the wearer to the land.
