At the helm of Haus of Dizzy, proud Wiradjuri woman, Kristy Dickinson, creates bold, playful, statement-making jewellery that celebrates and honours First Nations culture - imbuing a sense of empowerment and joy within everybody who wears it.
Dickinson has been making jewellery for 20 years and founded Haus of Dizzy in 2015 after recognising a lack of representation within the world of jewellery and fashion accessories. “I created the First Nations pride collection so Mob could show their pride in a cool, fun way and allies could support and open a dialogue around First Nations issues.”
