Tree of Life on Amethyst
The Tree of Life on this pendant is hand worked in copper and is patterned after the Celtic tree of life, the oak. This wearable art is double sided to create a unique piece of jewelry or art sculpture to hang on the wall. At 3.5 inches tall by 2 inches wide and less than 1/2 inch thick, this is really too heavy to wear as a necklace unless you are truly stout. This is worked over an amethyst crystal slab.
Many cultures around the world have a tree of life, with varying connotations depending on the tree. In general, it represents the continuity of life, the divergent branches of life and their interrconnectedness of that life. The Celtic oak also symbolizes strength and the door way. Whether you are looking for a symbolic representation, a metaphysical connection, or beauty, these trees make a striking statement.
