A simple Wild Rose leaf necklace, made using silver clay paste to transform the original leaf into a solid fine silver (99.9% pure silver) replica of the original leaf.

The process of leaf creation starts with finding and picking a suitable leaf – not too big, as I like delicate leaves.   I then layer paint the silver clay paste until it is thick enough to withstand the firing process.  As it is being fired all of the organic compounds in the clay burn away, as too does any of the leaf that is still stuck to the clay.  What is left after firing is solid fine (99.9% pure) silver.

This particular leaf came from a Wild Rose plant growing on the edge of a field in the village where I live in the South-Downs in Hampshire. 

The silver leaves I use for my designs are made in very small batches, often to order, so there is minimal impact on the plant or other wild users of the plant! Which also means, of course, that the finished piece is truly one of a kind – just like each individual leaf in nature!

The leaf is hung from a sterling silver chain to create a subtle and simple necklace connecting you with nature every time you wear it!

Dimensions

Leaf measures approx. 2.5cm in length x 1.5cm at its widest point.

Drop length from chain to bottom of leaf is approx. 3.5cm.

Total length of sterling silver chain including clasp measures 45cm/18 inches.

Returns and Refunds

All of my pieces are handmade with a lot of love and I take great pride in everything I make, and in seeing a smile on your face! I am a strong believer in hand-made meaning quality and also that because each piece is individually made by hand there sometimes may be irregularities on the surface reflecting the organic nature of the materials I work with , which creates truly one of a kind pieces.

I also know that occasionally things might go awry, and if you find that you have a problem with your item please contact me straight away so we can discuss how best to resolve the situation.
