There's something quietly bold about leaves. They whisper beauty without even trying. And when they take shape as handmade copper earrings? That whisper becomes a statement.
These Copper Ginkgo Leaf Earrings by John S. Brana do exactly that. They take nature’s charm, wrap it in warm copper, and turn it into wearable art. Hand-formed, lightweight, and coated to keep their warm glow – they’re more than earrings. They're tiny sculptures for your ears.
Why Ginkgo Leaves?
Because ginkgo trees are survivors. Seriously – they’ve been around since the dinosaurs. Their fan-shaped leaves stand for hope, strength, and long life. So wearing these earrings? It’s kind of like carrying a little piece of quiet power with you.
And let’s be honest – that shape? It’s pure eye candy. Soft curves. Breezy elegance. Nothing too sharp or loud. Just natural beauty done right.
Who Would Love These Earrings?
Well, if you:
- Care more about handmade craftsmanship than whatever fast fashion is throwing on shelves
- Look for eco-conscious jewelry that doesn't look like you're trying too hard
- Love pieces that start conversations (because you’ll get questions wearing these, no doubt)
- Want something sweet and thoughtful for a 7th anniversary gift (because copper’s the traditional metal for that year)
Then yes – these earrings are for you. Or your wife. Or your cool sister-in-law who’s always ahead of the trend curve.
How to Style the Copper Ginkgo Leaf Earrings
Actually, they’re super easy to wear. Think of them as your go-to for adding a little nature vibe to almost anything.
Here’s where and how they shine:
- Everyday Outfits – White tee, jeans, and these? You’re golden.
- Business Casual – Add them to a sleek blouse and blazer to tone down the stiff office look.
- Boho Vibes – Floaty dress, messy bun, earthy tones… these earrings fit right in.
- Evening Looks – Want a soft shimmer without sparkles? Copper catches the light without showing off.
Oh, and they’re featherlight. So no droopy ears after a long day.

Why Choose Copper Jewelry Anyway?
Copper’s been making a comeback – and not just in the fashion world. There’s something earthy and human about it. Maybe it’s the way it warms up against your skin. Or how it somehow manages to feel rustic and modern at the same time.
Plus, some people wear it for wellness reasons. There’s a whole conversation going on about that in this post on whether copper and magnetic bracelets help with arthritis.
But even if you’re not into all that? The color alone is worth it.
