**Hinoki Cypress Sterling Silver Pin, Gold Plated Pin, Brooch, Large, Three Colors** **✦✦✦ Product Introduction ✦✦✦** Hinoki Cypress - A conifer, a common plant in our surroundings. Hinoki Cypress is a horticultural variety of the Chinese Arborvitae; it is shorter than the Chinese Arborvitae, with a conical crown, branches and leaves spread out laterally, and a unique fragrance. Inspired by the unique leaf shape of the Hinoki Cypress, its scale-like leaves are opposite, resembling beautiful coral, with delicate and three-dimensional textures that emit a unique luster under the sunlight. SHIYE records the moments of sprouting, blooming, and withering of the earth through metal craftsmanship, conveying the beautiful value of the life cycle. We begin by observing the insignificant plants around us, drawing inspiration from the changes of plants throughout the seasons.

This is why we choose 925 sterling silver for our series of products. **The unique oxidation process naturally creates rich and layered colors, with varying color distribution in each piece. This unique characteristic** fully showcases its exclusive quality. The jewelry will continue to develop varying degrees of oxidation due to environmental humidity and the wearer's sweat's acidity, reducing saturation and luster. It may also gradually wear off the oxidation layer through friction with the skin. The jewelry will become more silver-like with wear. When the oxidation layer wears off, it is recommended to book a vulcanization service to maintain the unique color of the jewelry. - **■ Color: Gold.** **■ Material: International Standard 925 Sterling Silver, surface plated with 14K gold.** ■ Using electrolysis, a K gold protective layer is plated onto the sterling silver surface through plating solution. The plating thickness is approximately 5-10 microns. We use jewelry-grade plating with nickel-free treatment, providing a K gold-like texture, resistance to oxidation and fading, and enhanced hardness. The plating layer, containing gold, may gradually wear off due to environmental humidity, the wearer's sweat's acidity, and friction with the skin, revealing the base metal's color. This is a normal phenomenon. When the plating layer wears off, it is recommended to book a re-plating service to maintain the jewelry's beautiful texture. ----------------------------------------- **✦✦✦ Packaging ✦✦✦** ■ This product comes with gift packaging, suitable for gifting. ■ Gift Packaging: Includes a gift box, care card, storage pouch, and sealed bag. ■ The gift box is made from recycled paper. ■ We offer a complimentary card writing service.
