Sterling Silver Gum Leaves Pendant

I created this gum leaf pendant for a lovely client who was travelling overseas to visit her daughter, who is away.

She wanted something to take to her daughter to remind her of home.

I love some subtle Australiana!

There’s a nod to the sky and the sea and the forest in these sodalite, malachite, and silver gum-leaf earrings I created last year for my client George.

As part of the design process, I sent George some pictures of combinations of different gemstones from my available gemstone collection. He chose sodalite and malachite as a lovely combo. We added the gum-leaves for a lovely subtle nature themed earring. George thought they looked great, and they went off to a new home overseas. I’m always so happy when my clients like the pieces I’ve made. It’s always exciting when they’re headed off to various corners of the globe. I have made some well travelled jewels!Sodalite and Malachite Sterling Silver Gumleaf Earrings

I received a request to make a pendant with an Australian theme for a wee Irish girl. I designed this little gumleaf pendant for her.

I didn’t want to be too typically Australian, and liked the subtlety of the gumleaves and gumnuts.

The initial idea for the leaf construction came from a good friend and ex-classmate. Thanks, Fiona!
