The Ginkgo tree is the oldest living tree in the world and the only surviving member of the Ginkgo family.  Because of this the tree is referred to as a ‘living fossil’. It supposedly has been around since the time of the dinosaurs, and one tree in China is about 3,500 years old. The tree species is native to Southeast Asia, but was brought over to the US in 1784.  Some meanings behind the word Ginkgo, “silver apricot”, and biloba, two-lobed”, which comes from a Japanese origin. The seed of the Ginkgo is used for food, especially soup, the wood is used for religious furniture, and the leaves and nuts are used for medicine.  The Chinese and Japanese use Ginkgo in their Buddhist practices and have planted it around shrines and temples.  Asian cultures also use Ginkgo frequently in their gardens and often plant it after an important life event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eS H E L L S\u003cbr\u003e\nEach Oyster or Scallop shell dish will have subtle variations in its natural size and depth and how the decoupage is applied, as every one is individual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eP R E S E N T A T I O N \u003cbr\u003e\nThe shells are wrapped in white tissue paper and are then presented in a natural, branded, sustainable gift box, nestled in white shredded \u0026amp; recycled paper to protect the shell on its journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA wonderful self indulgent treat for you or a thoughtful gift to show your love for that special someone ❤️\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• friends\u003cbr\u003e\n• birthdays\u003cbr\u003e\n• engagements\u003cbr\u003e\n• anniversaries, \u003cbr\u003e\n• wedding favours\u003cbr\u003e\n• bridesmaids \u003cbr\u003e\n• new home,\u003cbr\u003e\n• Mothers Day\u003cbr\u003e\n• Father’s Day\u003cbr\u003e\n• Easter,\u003cbr\u003e\n• Christmas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e... or simply position anywhere in your home to be cherished and admired!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll listed quantities and patterns are ready to be made, however if you should like larger quantities or a bespoke order made, please do get in touch and I’d be happy to assist.
