Description
Originally a newly grown hydrangea leaf, this nature inspired fine silver leaf pendant is a memento of that beautiful plant that grows in the summer and by the end of the season is full of gorgeous blooms. It is accented with a CZ amethyst in remembrance of the stunning purple hues of the flowers. A great every day piece and would make a nice gift for that nature lover or avid gardener friend.
No two pendants are the same. Each is unique because they are created from a real leaf found on my journeys.
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.
