Porcelain Magnet | Golden Wattle

Skimming Stones pay homage to the quintessential Wattle Tree with this stunning magnet. The Golden Wattle (Acacia pycnantha) is Australia’s floral emblem and has long been valued by Indigenous Australians. A tree which flowers in late winter and spring, producing a mass of fragrant, fluffy, golden flowers, it is a symbol of unity, resilience and spirit of the people of Australia.

Skimming Stones was established by Tony and Yen in 2012 with a focus on cross-cultural creativity - traditional Japanese ceramics meet re-interpreted Australian Iconography. The design duo make homewares and accessories for the modern world - dedicated to creating design-led products that are unique, meaningful and with timelessness. Drawing on 400 years of traditional Japanese porcelain, their unique homewares are designed in Melbourne and crafted in Arita, Japan. Arita is known as the home of Imari porcelain, internationally the most famous type of Japanese pottery. The distinctive Japanese Arita porcelain is renowned for its superb quality and the tradition of porcelain making dating back to 1616.
