Light that moves. Rooms that live.

A suncatcher is not a piece of jewelry. It is a tool that works with light. Hang it in the window, and as soon as the sun hits it, it casts rainbows throughout the room – dancing specks of light on walls, ceilings, floors. Your room becomes a quiet, living space.

The Golden Leaf combines two symbols that have stood for tranquility and clarity in East Asia for centuries: the ginkgo leaf and the lotus blossom. Both are crafted in the finest brass filigree, like delicate paper cuttings, and connected with a polished crystal glass sphere that refracts light into all colors.

Ginkgo and Lotus – two companions of stillness

In Chinese and Japanese culture, the ginkgo leaf is a symbol of endurance, hope, and longevity. The ginkgo tree survived ice ages and even the Hiroshima bomb – it carries the serenity of those who remain.

The lotus blossom emerges from dark, murky water and opens flawlessly on the surface. It represents spiritual clarity, new beginnings, and the ability to grow towards the light through all hardship. Two powerful symbols, united in one object.

How the light works

The polished crystal glass pendant (K9, the highest quality grade for optical crystals) captures incoming sunlight and refracts it into the complete color spectrum. Small rainbows wander through your room, changing their position with the sun's stand. On some days, they are everywhere. On others, only fleeting. Always different, never random.

Hang the Golden Leaf where the morning sun falls, or in the west window for the evening light. Above your desk, next to your bed, in the reading room. Wherever you want a moment of mindfulness.

Care

The brass will develop a slight patina over time – this is part of the natural aging process and makes each piece more unique. If you want to maintain its original shine, polish the brass occasionally with a soft cloth. Clean the crystal glass pendant as needed with a slightly damp microfiber cloth – it is more delicate than real rock crystal and should not come into contact with cleaning agents.

Good to know

The Golden Leaf is a decorative and light object. The pendant is made of high-quality K9 crystal glass, not natural rock crystal. It is an aesthetic object for your home – not a healing stone or energy object. 

 

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a sun catcher?

A sun catcher is a hanging object made of metal, crystal glass or gemstones that refracts incoming sunlight and casts light reflections into the room. It has no electrical function – only light and movement.

Where should I hang a sun catcher?

On a window with direct sunlight – ideally south or west-facing. This creates the most and most colorful reflections. With less sun, brass motifs also work as pure decoration.

What do ginkgo and lotus symbolize?

In East Asia, the ginkgo symbolizes longevity and hope. The lotus in Buddhism stands for purity and spiritual awakening – the flower grows from the mud toward the light.
