Her character is a Sixties Scoop survivor and she plays a cop based in Victoria investigating the case of Reena Virk,91裸聊视频� said Wisden.  91裸聊视频淚 chose to engrave Camas Lilies on the chest plate to symbolize resurgence and taking root.

Gladstone wasn91裸聊视频檛 the only star to wear Wisden91裸聊视频檚 pieces. Chad Charlie from TV91裸聊视频檚 Reservation Dogs, also wore several items made by Wisden.

Wisden has been working in the arts since completing a fine arts diploma in 2009. She later completed a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art and Design in 2014. Wisden has been making carved jewelry since 2019 after completing an apprenticeship under her father, Norman Seaweed. 

Wisden typically works with copper, silver and gold but will also branch off into other design avenues for commissions for vector drawings or even tattoos. Working in copper is especially significant for her.

Gladstone and Charlie aren91裸聊视频檛 the first famous people to wear Wisden91裸聊视频檚 work.

91裸聊视频淭here are people who have worn or bought my work that are up to notable activities like writing best selling books, reporters, university superstars, or going on TV for a reality show.91裸聊视频�

Both Gladstone and Charlie91裸聊视频檚 stylists contacted Wisden separately in order to borrow work for the Emmys. 

91裸聊视频淚 never have any stock or items to borrow, so I offered another option to make work specific for the event. They didn91裸聊视频檛 know until the day of the event they would be wearing my jewelry for the Emmys. So that was a highlight to receive a backstage image of them twinning in their copper jewelry from me.91裸聊视频�

Wisden had a short turnaround time to get her pieces ready for their Emmy debut.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 hard to make sense of what the designing, creating, cleaning and sending adds up for my time,  but I had three weeks to finish the work for both of them before the Emmys event.91裸聊视频�
