This pendant features a circular moonstone and mother of pearl crescents set on a copper-plated gingko leaf. It is suspended from an adjustable leather cord.
This striking talisman began as a sustainably foraged gingko leaf from Connecticut. It was carefully dried and preserved, coated in a layer of graphite, and processed through an energy-charged acid bath for over 10 hours to achieve a thick coating of pure copper. The original gingko leaf remains intact, inside the heart of the piece. It is subsequently hand oxidized and sealed in a two-step wax and polishing process to reduce tarnishing and preserve the existing patina.
How to care for sculptural copper jewelry: This item will continue to age over time, developing a rich patina with wear and exposure. Remove your jewelry prior to sleeping, bathing, exercising, or cleaning. This piece has been sealed with a two-step wax and polishing process to prevent wear and discoloration. Gently wash with water and diluted soap as necessary. Harsh chemicals can damage gemstones, remove patina, and wear away the protective polish coating. Jewelry should be stored away from sunlight and heat. Copper is a low-allergic metal and should cause no harm during contact with your skin although discoloration may occur if the protective coating is damaged. Do not wear on bare skin if you have a copper sensitivity.
