Aki No Eda brooch

This brooch in yellow gold is formed with curved wire, subtly engraved, and darkly rhodium-plated to mimic tree bark. Nine ash tree seeds, each with small rings, hang scattered throughout. The seeds are cast, using the lost-wax technique, to preserve their natural structure. When worn, they move as if the wind is playing with them. The brooch is part of the DIVA Museum Antwerp collection.
