Gardens are both a mosaic of nature and a labor of love. After much time, nurturing, and loving care, leafy vines can be found hugging garden beds of freshly blossomed flowers to welcome them to their new home. The petite, delicate buds that started the garden eventually expand and grow into beautiful, charming garden flowers.
Materials: The Garden Vine Earrings are cast in hand patinated bronze and accented with different sized white freshwater pearls. The wires are 925 silver with a 24kt gold plating.
Measures: 1.46" L x 0.53" W
The Michael Michaud Jewelry Collection is a world renowned collection of botanical jewelry. It captures the beauty and exquisite detail of nature using soft patinas on bronze accented with pearls, beads, coral and stones. His exacting attention to detail gives you true to nature, botanical jewelry.
This unique jewelry is made by creating molds directly from botanical elements in a process similar to lost-wax casting. While traditional lost-wax casting begins with a hand-carved model of wax, Michael Michaud instead uses an actual leaf, branch or flower in place of the wax model. A mold is created around the botanical element and as it is heated the plant matter burns away and leaves behind a beautifully detailed mold of itself.
