The Tree of Life is a concept that's been featured in myth, story and legend literally all around the world. Since ancient times, people have used variations on the theme. Connecting all things - the realms of the spirit, the physical, the Divine and the mundane - the roots of the Tree and the branches touch all things and bring them together in harmony.
This pendant is handmade using painstaking wire-wrapping techniques. Silver colored wire frames and encircles the pendant, and is then used as the roots, trunk and branches of the tree. This wire is bare and will oxidize and get a natural patina as it ages.
This tree is bare of leaves like one would see in Winter and features a large, aqua blue shell round disk representing a "full moon" behind the branches. This full moon is a rare "blue moon" which is the term for the second full moon in a single calendar month. This piece has a very mystical feeling to me and a stillness to it as well.
The piece uses a pre-formed ring approximately 1.5" x 1.5" It also features a decorative bail so it can be worn on any cord or chain of your choice. Chains sold separately here in the shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/PhoenixFireDesigns?section_id=7776955
You will receive the exact piece shown. This is a sister piece to "Under A Full Moon" Tree and represents a newer style for me. Every time one of these is listed, they go fast and I tend to make them once in a blue moon (ha!) so please snag it when you can. I really love it and hope you do as well.
