Sterling Silver and Lapis Lazuli Ivy Brooch

Description

A trailing leaf becomes a piece of wearable art in this lapis lazuli ivy brooch. We handcraft it in 950 sterling silver with lapis lazuli inlaid. The stylized ivy shape feels timeless and a little quirky at the same time.

Ivy is traditionally seen as a symbol of fidelity and lasting friendship, because it holds on and keeps growing. Our artisans cut the stone by hand to follow each leaf, then polish it smooth. As a result, the deep blue sits neatly inside the fine silver outlines.

The brooch has a solid sterling silver back and pin, so it stays secure on heavier fabrics. It measures 1.8 inches long by 0.9 inches wide. That slim, upright shape works well on a lapel, a hat band or the shoulder of a dress.

This lapis lazuli ivy brooch is one you will enjoy wearing on all occasions, from the office to a garden party. It is also available in all our stones, so you can pick a green, a red or another favorite color. It makes a thoughtful gift for a gardener, a friend or a teacher.

Exceptional, completely natural lapis lazuli

All our lapis lazuli is of exceptional grade and completely natural. We are one of the few jewelers who never use synthetic stones and never dye our lapis to mask poor quality – practices that are all too common, as much of the lapis lazuli sold today is dyed, reconstituted or imitation stone. That is our difference.
