Ginkgo Leaf Bronze Cuff Bracelet by Michael Michaud

The Ginkgo Leaf Patinated Bronze Cuff Bracelet from Michael Michaud's Silver Seasons collection is cast in hand patinated bronze from real ginkgo leaves in order to capture every natural detail. This unique jewelry is made by creating molds directly from botanical elements in a process similar to lost-wax casting. While traditional lost-wax casting begins with a hand carved model of wax, Michael Michaud instead uses an actual leaf, branch or flower in place of the wax model. A mold is created around the botanical element and as it is heated the plant matter burns away and leaves behind a beautifully detailed mold of itself.

Artist Michael Michaud has been creating his Silver Seasons Jewelry collection since 1992 and has mastered the skill of manipulating molds into beautiful pieces of jewelry. Each piece of Michael Michaud Jewelry is handcrafted in the USA in New York City. Dimensions: The cuff can be bent slightly to fit most wrists.
