The bracelet is made of natural Gum nuts, and Ininti seeds and has a design relating to Aboriginal iconography burnt into the Gum nut.

Jewellery making can be a seasonal occupation because the materials required are found in the natural environment and are only available at particular times of the year in certain desert regions. The seeds and Gum nuts are collected by women and children traditionally when searching for bush tucker using their knowledge of the land.
