The Echidna, with its coat of protective spines and curious snout, is one of Australia’s most unique and ancient native animals.
Found across much of Australia in forests, woodlands, grasslands and bushland, Echidnas spend their days slowly exploring the landscape in search of ants and termites.
Using their strong claws and sensitive snouts, they dig into soil and fallen logs to find food, moving through their environment with quiet determination.
Echidnas symbolise patience, resilience and self-protection, reflecting the steady and thoughtful way they navigate the world.
When the Echidna appears, it can be seen as a gentle reminder that strength can be quiet, patience can be powerful, and it is wise to protect our energy while moving steadily toward what we need.
Our Echidna earrings began as an original illustration in our home studio and have been thoughtfully transformed into lightweight earrings using recycled plastics - right here in Brisbane, Australia.
