As the fruit of the oak tree, acorns are tokens of nature's alchemical magic … a tiny, hardened nut that transforms into a mighty and wise oak tree … the small but hardy acorn reminds us that great things can come from the smallest beginnings.

- the oak branch twigs and acorns may vary slightly, naturally, as they are individually sand cast
I’ve sand cast the oak branch twig and acorns, from a local oak tree, in recycled sterling silver and then finished them up to highlight their rustic woodsy details ... hand crafted jewelry, in my little studio, because how it's made matters.
Sand casting is a multi step hand crafted process that involves creating a mold in sand, melting metal (in this case sterling silver) and pouring the molten metal into the sand mold.
