Fold-Formed Leaf Hand-Forged Sterling Silver Pendant

This one-of-a-kind pendant is hand-forged in sterling silver in our Adirondack jewelry studio, shaped at the bench using traditional silversmithing tools. The leaf form is created through fold-forming techniques, allowing the metal to develop natural structure and dimension. Hand-stamped details are worked into the surface, giving definition to the form while maintaining a clean, refined composition. This is hand-forged sterling silver jewelry with clarity, structure, and enduring presence.

Form & Proportion

The pendant measures approximately 1.75 inches in length, offering an elongated, sculptural profile. The folded structure creates natural curvature and depth, allowing the piece to catch light across its surface. The proportions are balanced—substantial enough to hold presence while remaining wearable and fluid in form.

Materials & Method

Forged from solid sterling silver, the leaf is shaped through fold-forming and refined through controlled tool work. Hand-stamped details are applied to enhance the structure and line of the form. The surface is left with a bright finish, allowing light to move across the contours and highlight the dimensional qualities of the metal. This is heirloom quality silver, built for durability and long-term wear.
