I made a silicone mold of a few leaves off my peperomia, and first duplicated the leaves in wax before transforming them into metal through lost wax casting.

I love replicating plants in metal 💚

    I love this! It would look so pretty with some copper! You could even make matching earrings and stuff. Super cute!

    Lost wax casting really is a lost art. Beautiful job! Do you work as a dental technician by chance?

    Very cool! Do you have a forge for the smelting? What do you use? Very curious about your process.

    Wow, that is beautiful. I would wear one.

    Edit: I just went to your online store, you make really beautiful wearable art.
