Keum-boo Gingko Leaf Earrings in 24K Gold and Silver (Small)

Gingko leaves are so beautiful. In addition to being gorgeous and elegant, they represent longevity, happiness and ever-expanding good fortune. They are the oldest living tree species in the world and outlived the dinosaurs and are considered living fossils.  Keumboo is the ancient Korean art of gilding. I thinly roll 24 karat gold until it is a little thicker than paper, cut it with an exacto knife and then permanently fuse it fine silver leaves which hang from sterling wires. I oxidize them to make the gold pop-lighter and brighter is also an option. They are light and comfortable and perfect for every day wear, active wear, work and also restful time. They are one of a kind not one leaf looks exactly like the other. 2 cm wide x 2 cm long (3.5 with the ear wires) 24k gold, fine and sterling silver Ready to ship in a gift ready, reusable organic cotton muslin bag.
