Creation & Processing Time

Every piece is made by hand, just for you. Please allow up to a week after placing your order for your jewelry to be created, carefully finished, and sealed with ProtectaClear (if specified) to help preserve its beauty. You have the option of leaving your copper pieces bare with no sealant.

If your order includes a custom design, additional time may be needed depending on the complexity—but don’t worry, I’ll keep you updated along the way. Make sure to check your spam box for any direct emails from me about your order.

Product Features

All handmade pieces feature either bare copper, .925 sterling silver, or both! I only use semi-precious gemstones and sometimes a Swarovski crystal or two. Made in the USA, shipped directly from Virginia. 

Materials & Care

By your choice, your piece can be been given an added feature of an anti-tarnish coating, but tarnish is bound to happen. The easiest way to keep your piece shiny is to wash it regularly with mild soap, warm water, and towel dry. Even better yet - use a sonic jewelry cleaner. You can keep a polishing cloth on hand for an extra step. You can add on my favorite polishing cloth from Sunshine when adding to cart. 

For protection when not wearing, store in an air tight bag with a moisture absorber. You can’t avoid tarnish with true earth metals, but these few simple steps will ensure shine for as long as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this jewelry hypoallergenic?

Yes! All pieces are made from genuine sterling silver or copper, which are nickel-free and safe for sensitive skin.

Will my jewelry tarnish?

Sterling silver may naturally darken over time; copper may develop a warm patina. Both can be polished back to their original shine with a soft cloth.

Are these pieces adjustable?

Many designs are slightly adjustable for comfort, but some styles have a fixed shape—check the product details for specifics.

Are all pieces exactly the same?

Since every item is handmade, slight variations in texture, shape, or color are normal and make your piece truly one-of-a-kind.

Can I wear this in water or while sleeping?

To prolong the life and shine of your jewelry, remove it before swimming, bathing, or sleeping.

How is the jewelry packaged?

Each piece comes in a protective pouch or box, perfect for gifting or safe storage. Let me know if your purchase is a gift

Caring for Your Handmade Jewelry

These started with a walk on my father-in-law's property in the hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where I harvested a real ginkgo leaf and hand-pressed it into silver clay to create a mold. Every vein, every curve, every imperfection of that leaf is captured in the metal — each pair pressed by hand from that same original mold.

I fired the clay to pure fine silver (.999), then finished each piece simply and honestly. No fuss. Just the leaf, preserved in silver, on a French ear wire.

They're the kind of earrings that feel like wearing a quiet memory.

Details:

  • Fine silver (.999), made from silver clay
  • Hand-pressed from a mold made from a real ginkgo leaf
  • Sterling silver French ear wires
  • Nickel-free
  • Handmade in Virginia

Someday this won't be just jewelry — it'll be the earrings you always wore.
