This is a REAL Ginkgo Biloba leaf, electroformed in copper with a genuine Black Obsidian gemstone. It is on a copper chain 18-20" in length. The leaf is sturdy and encased in metal so it will last forever if cared for.
Did you know Ginkgo leaves are known as living fossils? This is because it is the only remaining representative of a perished botanical family and is the oldest living tree species.
What is electroforming?
Electroforming is a chemical process in which copper metal is deposited and plated onto another material. It is a fickle and tedious process that takes quite some time but results in one of a kind pieces. It encases organic materials in metal so they are sturdy and last forever!
All pieces are intentionally distressed a bit and have a patina (finish) put on to make them look darker and more antique.
All pieces are sealed to prevent oxidation. Oxidation is a normal occurrence in which copper turns green. Should this happen, you can lightly buff it off with a soft cloth.
Do not wear jewelry in the shower or pool, try to keep dry and store in a safe place when not wearing.
