Silver necklace "Ginkgo" by Petra Waszak, 925 sterling silver

Thumbnail for display imageClick to enlarge

Art and poetry merge to create a magical piece of jewelry: As a tribute to Goethe's poem "Ginkgo biloba", Petra Waszak designed this enchanting necklace that delights.

The ginkgo design, inspired by the unique, bifid leaves of this extraordinary plant, has symbolized harmony and partnership for millennia. This deeply rooted symbolism is underscored by the existence of male and female ginkgo trees. In Asian philosophy, the elegant, upright growth habit of the ginkgo represents Yang, embodying dynamism and vitality. In contrast, the fan-shaped leaves represent Yin, symbolizing gentleness and delicacy.

This necklace is not just a piece of jewelry, but also an expression of this powerful dual symbolism that is captured in every piece.

Necklace in 925 sterling silver. Size 4 x 4 cm. The chain consists of three thin, silver-plated stainless steel wires. Adjustable length from 42-47 cm. Due to the elaborate handcrafted production, the pendants may vary slightly and are therefore unique.
