Saw this unusual black leafed plant recently and found it quite interesting in texture and shape. It's truly the darkest green you can imagine with a very shiny almost patent leather-like look.

It's interesting to me as well Kathy, because I never have seen such a plant before. Very good textures indeed.

Regards, Cornelius.

Perhaps you could make a pair of slippers, Kathy.
Wonderful edit.

Such an amazing colour for a leaf Kathy, I'm pleased you photographed it for us all to see. In my imagination I see it as an ancient defence shield against bows, & arrows.
