Real Aspen Leaf Necklace with Freshwater Pearls

Real Aspen Leaf Necklace with Freshwater Pearls

This delicate, large aspen leaf is preserved in a gunmetal finish (leaves range in color from dark brown to almost black) and hangs from a sterling silver square chain accented with pale, silvery freshwater pearls. It clasps in front with an off-center square toggle in hammered sterling silver. 15-inch choker-style chain. These are real leaves, so each one is unique.

Please contact me if you would like a longer chain.

Limited-edition.

Each of our leaves are made from a real leaf, meaning no two are alike. The process used is called “electroplating”. First, a leaf is hand-selected and then the surface is hand-painted with a copper-based paint.

Once the natural surface is coated with the copper metal, the leaf is then dipped into a solution of 24K gold or other specialized metal finishes such as Silver, Pink Copper, Iridescent Copper, Black, Cobalt Blue on Black, Rainbow Iridescent Copper, Antique Copper, Antique Silver, Antique Brass, Antique Gold and Green Copper Patina.
