ABOUT these Jewellery Pieces
The botanical name for the common sunshine conebush is Leucodendron salignum and it is probably the most common species of the protea family in South Africa.
Like all leucadendrons, there are separate male and female plants. The example depicted on my jewellery is a female flower head. They flower between the months of April and November when they are pollinated by beetles. The winged seeds remain in the woody cone until they are released after a fire and then they are distributed by the wind.
Pendant
Handcrafted in silver with brushed leaves and subtle oxidation on the cone. The three dimensional cast is attached to the wooden disc by several silver pins which are discreetly covered by the silver backplate. The backplate with cut-out leaves and the “dS” logo supports and protects the wooden disc. The slightly convex disc is 60mm in diameter and has a water resistant finish.
The unique silver chain, attached to the rim of the pendant has a total length of 53cm. The last 5 links allow for the chain length to be adjusted and a “dS” charm, suspended from the terminal link, completes the piece. Wooden discs in one of the following types of wood complement this design – black chacate, wild peach, red ivory wood and silver tree.
