A modern Canberra classic. Perfect for everyday wear, yet elegant enough to transition easily into an evening look. Also available in sterling silver, gold plate and rose or yellow gold on request, there is a pair of 'Kristina hoops' to suit every body and budget.

Kristina Neumann is a multi-award-winning Canberra-based jeweller in the early stage of her career. Her jewellery spans a range of eminently wearable every-day pieces and experimental, one-off exhibition works. Periodic exhibitions allow Kristina to test and explore unusual surfaces, textures and materials like Canberra red brick, which she then uses as inspiration for her line of pieces designed for every-day wear. Her range of square-profile hoop earrings have fast become a Canberra classic, both minimal and innovative enough to be worn by anyone, with anything.
Kristina graduated from the ANU School of Art and Design Jewellery & Object workshop with First Class Honours in 2019, and her jewellery has been awarded the Talente 2020: International Craft Exhibition Prize, Wearables Emerging Artist Prize, and the CAPO Robert Foster Memorial Award.
