Item Description
These gingko tree leaves have been recreated in sterling silver. They hang from .925 sterling silver ear wires and have been polished to bring out the depth and detail. These earrings measure just over 7/8" wide and about 1-1/8" tall, including ear wires.
From the artist:
Behind our neighbor's 1896 stone Victorian home, complete with a turret and beautiful stained glass windows, is a huge old ginkgo tree. As ginkgo trees are very slow growing, I believe that this tree must be almost the same age as the house! The tree's leaves all turns a magnificent yellow in autumn, and then in one day, all the leaves rain down and form a golden blanket around its massive trunk. It is from this tree's leaves that I made a mold to make these earrings.
As an artist and gardener deeply connected to nature, I am inspired to create jewelry that evokes the beauty of the natural world. I strive to capture one ethereal and exquisite moment of nature, encapsulating it in a piece of art jewelry that becomes your talisman.
My jewelry is about nature, connections and relationships…it is imbued with the love, joy, passion and peace I feel when creating it. It is designed to embody the beautiful connection between you and nature each and every time you wear it!
