Ginkgo golden reflections, Japanese leaf necklace in silver and labradorite

The Ginkgo Reflections of Gold necklace is an ode to the silent beauty of Japanese gardens and the timeless wisdom of nature. It is centered around an oval labradorite, with shifting reflections of gray, blue, brown, yellow, green, and black—like a peaceful pond in a Zen garden, where the sky, clouds, and autumn leaves are reflected in the deep, calm water.

The leaves of the ginkgo biloba, a sacred tree in Asia, turn a brilliant gold as autumn approaches, before slowly shedding their leaves and covering the ground with a golden blanket. The ginkgo tree is known for having survived the Hiroshima explosion, rising again despite the devastation. This silent miracle has made it a universal symbol of hope, resilience, and renewal. In Asia, it is often planted near temples as a guardian of peace, balance, and wisdom.

In this necklace, ginkgo leaves symbolically brush the surface of tranquil water, marking the contours of the pendant with their golden reflection—an image of meditation, vegetal silence, and the natural cycle.

A long stem, like a stylized branch, winds around the cabochon, descending and ending at the bottom of the pendant with a finely sculpted ginkgo leaf. This stem is punctuated with small silver spheres, both decorative and symbolic: buds in waiting, promises of rebirth and future foliage, ready to bloom with the return of spring.

This piece of jewelry is for those who carry within them the memory of the seasons, who cherish the contemplation of life and the silent dialogue between stone, metal, and plants.
