Ginkgo trees – symbols of love, strength, and adaptability – are usually depicted in rich green. However, in autumn, they transform into magical colors, creating a beautiful contrast with their small fruits.

The opulent necklace captures this magic, intricately and thoughtfully constructed, offering supreme comfort. The movable leaves, arranged in size and color gradient, gently caress the décolletage.

Like the early morning dew after a cool autumn night, the finest brilliant-cut diamonds sparkle between the pastel-colored conch pearls.

Unique piece of the highest fire enamel art

With the finest craftsmanship and the highest artistry, the leaves were made to shine in a color gradient with fire enamel. But what exactly is fire enamel? The fire enamel technique is an ancient form of surface decoration,
used to color jewelry and ornaments without the need for gemstones. The history of enameling dates back to ancient Greece. Only enameling makes it possible to be even more expressive and to give each individual piece a picturesque quality. Fire enamel is essentially a fusion of glass powder and metal.
Above all, it is - unfortunately - an almost forgotten technique in goldsmithing. It is necessary for the enameller to be well-versed in color theory, composition theory, goldsmithing, and enameling to achieve good results. Each material (whether gold, silver, or platinum) reacts completely differently to the enamel powder. All of this requires a lot of time, patience, and perseverance. Strong nerves are also needed to endure setbacks and failures during work. Because only with a lot of experience does the artist know what color result can be expected in the end. This high art has absolutely nothing to do with coloring with lacquer or paint.
