Ginkgo Leaf Necklace
A colourful way to show your fondness for the beauty of ginkgo leaves and a thoughtful gift for the nature lovers in your life.
The Ginkgo Biloba tree, also known as the Gingko or Maidenform Tree, has particularly delicate and attractive leaves. The ginkgo leaf's unique and recognizable shape is a popular motif for nature lovers.
This smooth and strong handmade glass pendant features an image of ginkgo leaves, adapted from an original photo.
✦ Would you like another colour? I may have it! Please feel free to send an email and I will show you what I have.
SIZE & DETAILS
✦ The necklace will be an 18" cotton cord or chain necklace as shown in the photo unless otherwise requested. The pendant size is approximately: 3/4" x 1".
PROCESS & DETAILS
✦ About the Image: It's a type of photo-transfer. After much editing and fine tuning, I print the image onto a type of paper that, once the piece is fired in the kiln, burns away. What's left is the metal oxide in the image that then permanently fuses to the glass.

Process & Details
Process & Details
✧ ✦ ✧ I make these pendants individually from layers of glass, using a high temperature kiln as well as other tools and equipment.
✧ ✦ ✧ The image is printed onto a special paper which burns away in the kiln, allowing the image, made up of mostly metal oxide, to fuse to the glass.
✧ ✦ ✧The glass pendant is strong and durable but smooth to the touch.
✧ ✦ ✧ A hole is drilled into the pendant for a secure fit to the cord or chain.
✧ ✦ ✧ I make each neck cord and neck chain which are specially designed to keep the clasp in the back and the pendant in front:)
✧ ✦ ✧ I strive for zero-waste in my jewellery-making and many of my designs include materials left over and recycled from previous projects.
✧ ✦ ✧ Handmade by me, from start to finish.
✧ ✦ ✧ I have over a decade's experience fusing glass. My pendants are waterproof and made to last many years.
Thank you for looking!!!

Materials
My GLASS pieces are made from scratch and kiln-fired. The CORD necklaces are made with high quality Japanese waxed cotton. Most CHAIN parts and CLASPS are metal alloy unless specified or requested.
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
The cotton cord necklaces can get wet (I wear mine in the shower!) but may shrink in approximately 1 inch.
The glass pieces are quite sturdy, particularly those with rounded edges, but best not to drop them on a hard floor if possible;) Clean with a non-abrasive cloth or method.
