Nina Designs has introduced a new line of Botanical findings and charms in sterling silver with wonderfully realistic forest textures. They describe them as “Silver leaf clasps and pendants with amazing detail add a touch of nature to any design. This collection is perfect for nature lovers or anyone looking for organic imagery. The leaves are uncannily life-like with tiny veins and the slight asymmetries found in living plants.”
I think the clasps shown here are particularly beautiful, and I am looking forward to incorporating them into my own designs! I can imagine they would be lovely in creations featuring art beads with natural imagery and organic shapes and textures.I love the Nina Designs catalog, because they design so many unusual and unique findings and beads, and they are committed to paying their Balinese silversmiths a living wage, something that I think shows in the high quality of their products.Click here to see the whole Botanical collection at Nina Designs
