Description
This fine silver holly leaf necklace began from a real holly leaf. I adorned it with a garnet rosary chain that represents the berries that holly bushes supply. This would make a great holiday accessory or winter jewelry piece.
No two pendants are the same. Each is unique because they are created from a real leaf found on my journeys.
• Fine Silver (.999) Pendant
• Sterling Silver Chain and Garnet Gemstone Beads measures about 18″
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.
