Aspen Gold Plate Leaf Earrings
£65.00
About the product
These Aspen Gold real leaf earrings are stunning and can be worn with our matching folia pendant collection. Each standard size earring measures approximately 50mm x 40mm.
Our stunning leaves are skeletonised to leave their veins intact. The leaf is then preserved through electroforming, a process where the leaf is slowly encased in copper to strengthen it. The leaf is finished in a heavy layer of 24-carat gold. Their size, shape and patination will vary, enhancing their individual nature and creating a truly unique piece of jewellery.
The aspen tree is associated with conquering your fears. The word "aspen" comes from the Greek "Aspen" meaning shield. The ancient Celts used the wood of aspen for battle shields. As the breeze passes through the aspen leaves, they flutter and quiver, making a soft whispering sound which is one of their most notable attributes. It is believed that as they dance in the breeze, they whisper a message of peace; listen within yourself and find comfort in the still, small voice of calm. The aspen is believed to teach us lessons of fearlessness and provide courage in facing the unknown.
All of our jewellery is beautifully packaged as standard in our environmentally friendly gift boxes.
