About the Item

John Iversden is well known for his handmade jewelry inspired by forms in nature. In the 1990's and early 2000's, he did a serious of leaf brooches, usually made of patinated bronze. Several were purchased by First Lady Laura Bush for gifts to foreign dignateries. Iversen used a technique similar to lost wax to make an identical image of the leaf. This one measures 5 inches wide and 2 3/8" at the widest.
