Description
Inspired by Mother Nature, this fine silver, hand painted fern leaf was found on one of my walks in the woods. It holds a beautiful CZ emerald gemstone and hangs on an 18″ ruthenium-plated chain. It would make a great gift for that nature lover in your life.
LEAF PROCESS:
Organic objects such as leaves often make the most unique and stunning patterns. Intricate and realistic detailing of leaves can only be achieved through a process that is very much a labor of love. After finding a gorgeous leaf that has fallen off the tree, I bring it home and paint about fifteen layers of precious metal clay slip onto the leaf. I then fire it in the kiln to produce a gorgeous, nature-inspired fine silver (.999) leaf that can be cherished forever.
