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. Hand hammered non-tarnish sterling silver plated wire frames and encircles the pendant, and is used as the roots, trunk and branches of the tree.

Ruby is one of only four rare, precious gemstones in the world (along with Emerald, Diamond and Sapphire.) Ruby is known as the most powerful gem in the universe. To own a ruby is to know contentment and peace. Given as a gift, ruby is the stone of friendship and love. It’s also associated with vitality and royalty. It is the birthstone of July.

The rubies used in this piece are 100% natural gemstone, grade A+ Micro faceted rondelles. Artfully arranged in a cascading ombre of pink, raspberry and deepest red (the most sought after deep red is known as “pigeon’s blood”), these rubies give the full range of stunning color.

Interesting fact: Sapphire and Ruby are basically the same gemstone, varieties of the mineral “corundum.” But the presence of another mineral, chromium, gives rubies their distinctive red color. As such, sometimes the paler tones are known as “pink sapphire” instead of “ruby.” No matter what you call it, both are precious and beautiful!
