We adopt the craft of hand-made Wax film carving, which preserves the natural shape of the leaves, and finely restores the unique veins of Ginkgo biloba leaves (the veins in the form of bifurcated branches usually appear in ferns, and are rarely seen in seed plants). It is still made of simple 925 Silver, and the colors are plain silver and matte light gold plating. When the real object fell into my hands for the first time, I felt the inexplicable emotional layering with the object.
Ginkgo originated in China, and its history can be traced back more than 100 million years ago, and the records in the classics are after the Southern and Northern Dynasties. In Mr. Shi Jun's "Botanist's Chopsticks and Silver", I read some interesting facts about ginkgo. In terms of names, the name of ginkgo in the Southern and Northern Dynasties was "Ping", "Pingzhong" was the general name in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and "duck paw" came from the name of the people's image. In the Song Dynasty, the ginkgo fruit (then called ginkgo) was used as a tribute item. Only then did it get the final name of "Ginkgo", and the name is also a clue to the emotional devotion to things.
It turns green in spring and summer, turns golden in autumn, and then shakes off all the leaves within a few days, making the most adequate efforts for growth. At the end of last year's autumn, we went to Chengdu, where ginkgo biloba is the city tree, and we happened to witness the splendid grand occasion of the continuation of life.
Bright yellow clumps over the treetops, whitewashing the buildings along the road. When I looked up, I didn't pay attention to the cloudy and sunny days. I only remembered the color of the leaves. The road was also covered with scattered yellow. If you pay attention, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that the shape of the fan can be extended so much. After returning, I fixed it in the form of an ornament, continuing its falling state, thinking of "the deep emotion between people and things", this ginkgo leaf brooch will definitely leave many interesting stories with its wearer.

- Listing Summary
- Continuing the Ginkgo collection, the Ginkgo Leaf Brooch is our first ever brooch. As a special leaf shape and impressive fan-shaped leaves, it also conforms to the principle of "there are no two the same leaves in the world". Among the various ingeniously changing forms, we finally settled on two leaf shapes that are of the same size and that we are familiar with and close to.
