A stunning celebration of nature rendered in three distinct metals by a Japanese artisan. And, of course, it's one of a kind that is hand fabricated by the artist.
This pendant brings the timeless beauty of ginkgo leaves to life through an elegant interplay of metals and Japanese sensibility. Three gracefully fanned brass leaves, each meticulously detailed with natural veining, cascade along a copper branch. The composition is set against a backdrop of oxidized black silver, creating dramatic depth and contrast that echoes the refined simplicity of Japanese design.
The oxidized silver background provides a sophisticated, darkened finish that beautifully highlights the ocher brass leaves and copper branch. Though the design looks simple, this piece embodies the Japanese concept of Wabi-Sabi—finding beauty in natural imperfection and the passage of time—while balancing organic inspiration with contemporary metalwork.
Symbolism: The ginkgo tree, deeply significant in Japanese culture, represents longevity, resilience, and hope. The fan-shaped leaves, spreading outward in their distinctive form, symbolize growth and expansion toward a bright future—making this piece both beautiful and profoundly meaningful.
Perfect for those who appreciate Japanese aesthetics, nature-inspired jewelry, or artist metalwork that tells a story.
