In nature the gingko tree is known as a living fossil as it is the only plant to have survived three ice ages! Symbolizing longevity, strength, peace and hope, this “zen” leaf is among the most beautiful leaves in nature.
These earrings are the largest of all my gingko leaf designs (and I have several), measuring 2 3/4 inches (6.5 cms) from the top of the ear wire, and 1 1/4 inches (3 cms) wide. Lending to their realistic appeal the surface is etched and slightly curved.
