As part of the most memorable family reunion last July in Canada, Barb's brother Chris made a ring for each of us (most of us who came) and for the women, a pendant each (with of without one of the rings). It depended on how close, relationally and generationally speaking, one was for a ring and pendant. Chris surprised us with his craftsmanship. Over the last few years he had been learning to cast metal jewelry and it was his personal project to make a commemorative ring (plus pendant) to mark the occasion of the first ever reunion. The design of the cast silver pendant had four maple leaves framed in a square with a central gem setting. Each ring had the same maple leaf design as shown below. He had asked for our finger sizes months prior to this. We were all very chuffed.
