Fragile Leaf Brooch form and characterThis was a special brooch that speaks of the beauty of the fragility of life. Both the leaf and the branch are nature cast, burning out the actual nature in a mold, thus creating a one of a kind silver replica. The cabochon is a rare Peruvian Blue Opal. The dew drops on the leaf are 22k gold granulation, an on it sits a pink ruby.
