gingko jewelry by susan thornton

This gingko necklace by Susan Thornton is stunning! There’s just so much to like: the delicate leaves, framed within a soft, yet modern pendant; the cutout which contrasts with the leaves for a play on negative and positive space. If you’re curious about how it’s done: Susan first saws and hammers the textures into the leaf forms, and then solders them into the pendant.

The entire pendant is secured by a 20 inch chain and is made of sterling silver, but will set you back over $300. If you’re looking for something more affordable, the similarly shaped gingko earrings above come in at a much more affordable $65. The silver itself is tarnish resistant with a matte finish, while the earwires are polished. Susan regularly purchases and supports other Etsyians; show her a little love and stop by her own store today.
