Large Silver Ginkgo Earrings

$ 68.00

Handmade from impressions of a real ginkgo leaves impressed into fine silver. These beautiful leaves dangle from hand forged sterling silver ear wires. The earrings were given a darkening patina, and then polished to a high shine; leaving the patina in the recesses of the design allows it to really stand out.

Fine silver clay consists of fine silver particles and an organic binder.  After forming, drying and refining the piece is fired in a kiln.  During this time the binder burns off and the result is a piece that is .999 pure silver.
