Description
Inspired by Mother Nature, this fine silver fern leaf began as a treasure found on one of my walks in the woods. It holds a beautiful green malachite gemstone and hangs on a double link sterling silver-plated chain that is versatile and can be worn with the fern hanging straight down or horizontally.
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.
