The ginkgo is among the oldest living trees on earth. Its leaf has carried the meaning of longevity and resilience in Chinese tradition for centuries.
At Lao Feng Xiang, the ginkgo leaf is rendered in pure 24K gold through filigree, each vein of the leaf drawn in fine gold wire that fans outward from a single point. The openwork structure lets light pass through the form the way it passes through a real leaf held to the sun. A single natural diamond sits at the center where the veins converge, the precise point of origin for the entire composition. A swan neck bail curves above the leaf with the same care given to the piece itself. At 3.432g it is delicate in appearance and deliberate in craft.
