Argentium Sterling Silver Leaf Pin/Brooch with Mauve orders Freshwater Pearl, handmade pin back.

This Argentium silver leaf would look elegant pinned to a fine sweater or silk blouse. The mauve freshwater pearl sits like a dewdrop on the leaf, which has been forged and hammer-textured. The pin back is handmade. Argentium silver is of a higher purity than regular sterling silver, and is highly tarnish resistant.

Let me introduce myself: I am Joy McDonell, a Canadian jewellery artist who has practised stone cutting and polishing at the Ottawa Lapsmith and Mineral Club, and metalsmithing in my studio, for over 20 years. My tastes and designs are very eclectic, as you can see from visiting my Etsy shop, JoyMcDonellJewellery. My background in photography has informed my work, and I am inspired by natural objects and by the culture orders and motifs I have encountered throughout my travels to places like India, Scotland, Ireland and the American Southwest.

In an effort to get your item(s) to you as safely as possible, I usually wrap them in tissue and place them in a gift bag or box, then wrap them in bubble wrap and ship them in a cardboard box or bubble envelope.
