The leaf is hand picked, then checked for imperfections, as only perfect leaves can be used to make our jewellery.
The leaf is then hand painted with a cooper solution, dried then placed in an electrolytic solution which has microscopic particles of 24k gold.
When this contact is made the particles of gold build up to preserve the most delicate intricate details of the leaf.
Once polished and cleaned the shiny new coating shows and magnifies the delicate minute details of the leaf.
Please take care when wearing this gorgeous jewellery as contact with household chemicals, perspiration, chlorinated water, or lotions/ cosmetics may cause corrosion and tarnish
It’s a good idea to remove silver jewellery when doing household chores, sunbathing or swimming as these will accelerate tarnishing.
Grace & Valour is a boutique jewellery collection.
Each of our pieces is handmade with great care and attention to detail and designed in our studio in the beautiful Rutland countryside.
Made from a real leaf coated with brass for structure and then coated with a coloured finish
