Cast and oxidized sterling silver arborvitae branch with 18karat gold drop ear wires, and with 10.5-11mm round cultured freshwater pearls.2 3/8" from top to bottom.
When reproduced in silver, the fascinating, intricate detail that appears on each side of the branch looks like ornamental iron, much the same way that I saw this resemblance in the macro photograohy of Karl Blossfeldt, a pioneer of macro photography in the late 1800’s.
