'Planting Seedlings' Brooch


Ginkgo Biloba
To my garden here translated,
Foliage of this eastern tree
Nourishes the initiated
With it's meaning's mystery.

- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The 'Planting Seedlings' Green Turquoise Brooch makes an enchanting addition to any seasonal activity. The brooch may well be worn while capturing a scene in a sketchbook, partaking in a botanical excursion, musing over a museum piece, or taking in the theater. Pin it to an upcycled tunic, a vintage dress or your favourite cardigan.

This one of a kind handmade piece features new and recycled sterling silver and contains a large oval green turquoise cabochon. The back of the piece reveals a hand cut ginkgo leaf. The natural patterns of the turquoise are also repeated in the hammered texture of the back plate.

The 'Planting Seedlings' Brooch features a 31x22mm oval cabochon cut Green Turquoise and is set in solid sterling silver and hallmarked 925. The back plate is hammer textured and saw pierced by hand with a ginkgo leaf motif. This piece will be posted in a drawstring pouch wrapped in bubble wrap for protection.
