Not Now, Not Ever Earrings
In October 2012, Australia's first female prime minister, Julia Gillard, made an "off the cuff" speech in parliament, that would later become known as, 'The Misogyny Speech'.
"Not now, not ever" is a fragment of that speech, that in 2020 would be voted by The Guardian readers as, "The most historic moment in Australian television history".
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of this speech we have created these earrings, encrusted with mirror glass, to represent the moment Ms Gillard stood up to misogyny and sexism and suggested to the opposition leader that he may need a mirror if he wanted to know what sexisim looks like in modern day Australia.
Handmade and designed in Australia- slight natural variations will occur due to the handmade nature of our product.
Size: Approx. 7cm L x 2.5cm W
Weight: A total weight of 20gms per pair
Description: Dangly earrings with black tops, white text and a white border. Hanging below are chunky glass and mirror encrusted pieces on a grey background with a black border. Surgical steel studs for pierced ears. Silicon backing to studs hooks in place.
