The ginkgo leaf has great symbolic significance.
In medicine and healthcare, both the leaf and the tree itself are ascribed a life-extending effect.
The ginkgo tree is also significant in Chinese philosophy because of the shape of its leaves—the fan-shaped arrangement of the leaves represents Yin (gentleness) and Yang (vitality).
Ginkgo has also become a symbol of harmony.
It is also a symbol of resilience, as shown by the story of the ginkgo tree that burned during the atomic bombings of Hiroshima in 1945, but quickly recovered with new shoots...
A beautiful glimpse into German history — beautifully crafted and elegantly designed...
A very well-preserved, unique, and collectible piece of jewelry.
