STerling Silver Nature Jewelry - 50% off CLEARANCE - James River Leaves Earrings, Triplets on Posts, from the Captured Collection
Description
These unique earrings are composed of sterling silver and dried leaves that have been sealed behind clear resin. I found these unusual leaves while hiking along the James River in Richmond, VA. They come in hues of green, khaki, and brown and feature a concentric circle pattern. Each of the sterling silver circles containing the leaves measures 8mm in diameter.
This listing is for the last pair of James River leaf earrings. They are on posts and hang about 3/4 inches in length. The pair you will receive look just like the earrings in the first photo except the color is less green and more khaki/tan. This style has been discontinued so they are 50% off.
Each piece of jewelry is handmade in my simple studio located on the sunny side of a 100-year-old farmhouse in the woods of Virginia.

ARTIST STATEMENT about the "CAPTURED COLLECTION":
I have always been attracted to the plethora of color, texture, and pattern that is nature's canvas. I often bring plastic bags with me for long walks in the woods (and not because I have a dog), rather, I like to collect the random bits of nature that inspire my creative work. It wasn't until recently that I discovered how to incorporate these materials into my metal jewelry, in the "Captured Collection."
The "Captured Collection" explores the human need to make timeless the treasures in life that bring us joy. All things organic are in a constant state of change. By sealing these found materials in a clear epoxy resin, I am able to suspend them in time. By becoming a wearable object set in precious metal, each bit of bark, tiny flower petal, or golden autumn leaf is viewed in a new light that can be shared with a broader audience.
All of my work is handmade by me in my simple studio that is located on the sunny side of a 100-year-old farmhouse in the woods of Virginia.

Returns and exchange details
RETURNS/EXCHANGES:
I understand that when purchasing online there is always a small element of surprise when your item arrives and you get to touch it and try it on. I take great pride and care in my work to ensure its quality and integrity. I want you to love each piece as much as I do. Usually it's a hit; but occasionally it's a miss. Therefore, I have a return/exchange policy outlined below.
Refunds/exchanges (minus shipping costs) for items in their original, unused condition are available when you contact me within 5 days of receiving the item in the mail. If we arrange for you to return an item, you are responsible for the return postage. I also require that you ship the item back within 5 days of our discussion, so that I can put it back on the "shelves" for another customer. Please ship the item in its original box/packaging. When it arrives, I will notify you, and then send a refund (minus shipping costs). If you do not ship the returned item in a timely fashion, you will receive store credit instead of a monetary refund.
Please understand that I exhibit at several art festivals and sell to shops and galleries year round. All of my work is handmade - many pieces are one of a kind - and I have limited inventory. This is why I ask that you arrange a return or exchange with me within 5 days of receipt of item and ship returns in a timely fashion.
*Please note that custom work and re-sized rings are not refundable or exchangeable - NO EXCEPTIONS.
