Illusory organic leaves from nature... 

Leaves are formed by folding and forging. Fold-forming is a technique of metalworking where metal is folded - like a piece of paper - and repeatedly forged and annealed, and unfolded; leaving it with a dramatic 3-dimensional shape. Forging is one of the oldest known metalworking processes and uses a specific hammer and anvil. Moving and stretching the metal into 3-dimensional forms.
