The Japanese Maple is a slow growing shrub or small tree with soft green palmate leaves that colour to a rich crimson in autumn. The long stalked clusters of purplish-red flowers are followed by "key" like fruits with two wings. The helicopters or whirly birds that filled the sky of our childhood.

Materials: The Japanese Maple brooch is cast in golden bronze and accented with pink copper highlights. The samaras are patinated in our signature green patina.

Measures:  2.2" L x 2.95" W
