Description
“Birch” pendant
The beautiful green leaves and the white trunk of the birch tree enthralles. A grove of birches offers space for peaceful reflection. A majestic birch in winter with frostbitten branches that glitter in the sunshine, or the magnificence of colours in autumn.
Nature inspires and is the original author of many GULDVIVA pieces.
“For me, to create a piece of jewellery is a natural process. Most of the time nature has already done most of the sketching.
With a starting point in classical goldsmithing I make use of the natural beauty and transfer the, in many cases rather complex, reality to a simple and stylistically clean form” – Maria Karlström, Head Goldsmith
BJÖRK is a beautiful leaf, in silver. XL is a little bit larger and looks wonderful worn on a long chain. Should you prefer, XL is also well suited to be worn on a chain with a rounder shape, closer to the neck (like the omega or silver thread).
925 sterling silver, nickel free
Height: ca 55 mm
Width: ca 41 mm
Standard chain: 70 cm snake chain
As all pieces are handmade the size may vary.
Sustainable Design
Sustainability and quality go hand-in-hand. Classic design, climate-smart material and the possibility to repair something when it falls apart are important factors to consider when you purchase a product, for example, a piece of jewellery from Guldviva. This is what we at Guldviva do to ensure that your jewellery is made to last.
QUALITY
Every piece of Guldviva jewellery is made by hand in our own workshop in the Maritime Quarter in Mariehamn on Åland. This guarantees high-quality, professional, solid craftsmanship.
All of our jewellery is produced from solid precious metals; it is never filled with other metals or hollow. Even the chains that come with our jewellery, but which we don’t produce ourselves, are of the highest quality, in either 925 sterling silver or 18K gold.
SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS
The only base materials we use are either nickel-free 925 sterling silver or 18K gold. We aspire to a completely sustainable production process and today we only use 100 per cent recycled metal.
Lifetime warranty
Your Guldviva jewellery is designed and made to last and to be handed down through the generations. This is why we have a lifetime warranty on all of our jewellery and repair all damages which arise from eventual mistakes in production. We will even be happy to repair damages which arise from wear-and-tear or accidents, but for the price of the normal cost of labour.
POLISHING AND RESTORATION
Silver and gold are metals which endure forever, but the jewellery you wear will often take on signs of frequent use. For this reason, we offer a free professional polishing of all Guldviva jewellery. For example, we can roll the jewellery in a drum with polishing beads, reapply the surface finish by hand and, if necessary, reapply antique treatments. Your jewellery will be like new again.
