Hailed as “undoubtedly one of the most distinct and beautiful of all deciduous trees,” the ginkgo certainly stands out. Unique, fan-shaped leaves turn a stunning yellow color in the fall.

The Ginkgo tree is a living fossil, with the earliest leaf fossils dating from 270 million years ago. It was rediscovered in 1691 in China and was brought to this country in the late 1700s. The seeds and leaves have been (and are still today) used in medicine throughout the world.

Also known as Maidenhair tree is a phenomenon, an object of veneration, a sacred tree of the East, a symbol of unity of opposites, yin yang by some seen as a symbol of changelessness, possessing miraculous power, bearer of hope and of the immeasurable past, a symbol of love. Because of all its properties it is associated with longevity.

Necklace features a lightweight ginkgo leaf pendant that hangs from a delicate cable chain. Jewelry is nickel free & lead free, great for most sensitive skin.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Be gentle and handle with love! Remove jewelry before showering or swimming. Avoid contact with water, excess humidity, lotion, hairspray, and perfume. Tarnish occurs naturally and metal reacts differently from person to person. To prolong oxidation of the metal, store jewelry in a cool and dry place.

Note: I don't have my own brick & mortar shop, so there isn't an easy way to do pickups. Coordinating pickups takes a lot of time and back-and-forth, so I'm not able to offer local pickup unfortunately.
