Huge Ginkgo Mixed Metal Moonstone Handmade Chain Statement Necklace (Adjustable)
Three hand-fabricated ginkgo leaves, big and life-sized, in mixed metals- brass and sterling. The rainbow moonstone glows a phenomenal blue and rests above the largest ginkgo leaf. The chain is painstakingly made by hand, with single-then-double link connections, finished with a handmade hook and a sweet ginkgo leaf dangle. The handmade chain adds weight, which is needed to balance the large central portion.
The central part of the necklace with the leaves is a bit over 5" tall/high and slightly under 5" wide. The height adds to the length. The handmade chain on the right is approximately 6.5" in length and on the left is approximately 7.5" (this allows it to sit at between 18-22" in length (approximately). This chain cannot be modified.
Brass is a messy metal to work with and even more difficult to work with when made in mixed metal pieces, so note that brass is never going to reduce the price of the work, as labor is extraordinary (something we should always factor into the cost of our work!) and more than makes up for the cost of the brass in lieu of sterling when the metals are combined.
Note: If you are rough on your jewelry, you will want to treat this with gentle care. While sturdy, elements should never been twisted, torqued, bent, or pulled/yanked.
All of my work, unless copper or brass (you'd see the difference), is 0.925 sterling silver.

US Domestic shipping prices on purchases over $100 include USPS shipping and insurance. International buyers who wish for insured postage are welcome to ask and I can obtain pricing through UPS; you would pay the additional charges. UPS across waters (i.e. not in Canada) are quite high with insurance, but I understand shipping during covid has made many of us nervous.
