Designed, hand cut, and hand hammered entirely by me in my Connecticut studio. The ginkgo leaf is a shape I return to again and again. Traditionally, ginkgos signify longevity, health, and resilience. In Classical Chinese medicine, the ginkgo is considered an embodiment of the complementary and opposing yin and yang.
Hand cut with a jeweler's saw from argentium sterling silver. Argentium is a form of sterling that contains more pure silver than regular sterling (94% vs. 92.5%) and resists tarnish. It is hypoallergenic and contains no nickel.
