Dorothy Erickson is a Western Australian artist jeweller and designer based in Perth who has exhibited internationally since 1979.

Daughter of respected naturalist, historian, botanical artist and writer Dr Rica Erickson she grew up on the family farm in Bolgart and attended boarding school in Perth.

Her jewellery is in private collections, museums and art galleries worldwide. Most of her early work reflected her Australian surroundings, using the colours and formations of the landscape as inspiration. Newer pieces often have kinetic qualities which are activated by the moving body while more recent work features multi-coloured stones used as a painter’s palette in the Klimt and Wildflower collections.

Beautifully crafted 18ct yellow gold brooch.

Featuring the prepared gemstones of square cabochon carnelian and citrine. The carnelian is an orange colour, while the citrine is a golden colour.
