Laurel Branch with Kyanite

This delicate branch of sterling silver leaves is accented by berries made of flashy blue kyanite. The leaves were hand shaped by me, and attached to the centerpiece with sterling silver wire, then over-wrapped by the berries. The centerpiece suspended by two strands of palest blue-green sesame jasper. The entire piece measures 17" in length and closes with a sterling silver toggle clasp. This is a delicate piece, dainty and very feminine.

Sterling Silver Ginkgo Leaf Pendant

So I was walking through the parking lot of the Kernersville public library when I looked down and saw the most perfect ginkgo leaf. I picked it up, along with several others nearby, and flattened them in between the pages of an Eddie Bauer catalogue I had laying in the floorboard of my car. I woke up at 5:00am the next day with this image in my mindThis one is really beautiful, I made it with sterling silver sheet for the leaf part and hammered fine silver (for shine) for the stem. I created a vine like sterling silver wire bail to attach it to a chain. It would look nice on a sterling silver chain or a brass chain, it is very versatile. It has been set with a beautiful blue turquoise stone at the point where the stem meets the leaf. The pendant measures just under 2.5" long and just over 1.25" wide. It is a very graceful pendant, and has lots of movement. It will certainly be a great piece to wear for everyday!
