The Thousands

SASA graduate Rani Rose specialises in handcrafted glass and sterling silver pieces that quite often look good enough to eat. Rani has turned her love of creating, making and doing into a full-time occupation, producing one of a kind jewels from her tiny studio in Thebarton. Disheartened by the concept of the "daily grind" (not just because her boss was a massive bitch, but that was definitely a contributing factor), Rani quit her customer service job, completed a small business management course, and got one of those grants that all the kids are talkin’ about (they give you money for FREE!).

With a large volume of work including cast-silver rings, fused glass brooches & earrings, flame-worked beads for necklaces & bracelets, and other assorted handicrafts already under her belt, twenty-ten is looking mighty fine for Ms Rose. She’ll be selling her wares this Friday at the Laneway Festival from 4 til 8pm, but if you missed out on tix you can pick up her pieces in the city at Urban Cow, Irving Baby and Bimbo. A perusal of her etsy page will whet your appetite, and for more info and pics check out her website.
