If you’re a savvy investor or just a numismatist who loves beauty, take advantage of this exclusive opportunity! A Truly Unique Silver Maple Leaf! This clever and innovative design by Canadian artist Lisa Thompson-Khan puts Canadas national symbol front and center, while conveying the radiance. And splendor of autumn. As though carried to the ground by the autumn breeze, several engraved maple leaves are positioned all around the perimeter. Extraordinarily detailed engraving gives them a life-like quality by recreating the veins that run through each lobe; the gentle furl of a fallen leaf; and their unmistakably serrated edges. Alternating finishes make each leaf distinct from the others, so that together they form a circular frame that shines the spotlight on the pièce-de-résistance, a large, jewel-like, maple leafshaped Venetian glass. Handcrafted by master glass-maker Giuliano Donaggio of Murano, Italy. The central glass element is resplendent in the fall paleette – the reds, yellows, oranges and golds that are associated autumn.
