The Hundred Year Old Olive Tree Lariat

Description

Standing upon the hills above Florence, looking down upon the famed city that is home to the David and the famed Duomo is surprisingly peaceful. Gone are the rustling of bags, the patter of feet along its sidewalks and the whoosh of cars and motorcyclists upon the streets.

If you take the path hidden up through the many winding roads and quaint neighborhoods, and hike through the tall willowy trees past where Leonardo da Vinci tested his flying machines and just after the 14th century villa, you might catch a glimpse of it - The Hundred Year Old Olive Tree.

In the oldest olive grove in the hills of Tuscany, she stands, basking in the glow of another Italian summer day. Split down her trunk to allow for more sunshine to be absorbed (a trait which affects the quality of the olive, I was told), she stands solid yet graceful, having weathered a century of peace and war, sunshine and storm. She is truly a sight to behold.

The Hundred Year Old Olive Tree Lariat is composed of two sterling silver leaves, one slightly larger than the other, dangling from a sterling silver chain measuring 18" (45 cm). Wear the lariat tied loosely around the neck or with one leaf tucked through the other, dangling daintly upon your chest.

This necklace may be made at a greater length (20" - 24"). Please specify if you'd like a longer length in the message to the seller at the time of purchase. Thank you!
