Sugilite Tree of Life
The concept of a tree of life, a many-branched tree illustrating the idea that all life on earth is related, has been used in science, religion, philosophy, mythology, and other areas. A tree of life is variously:
a) A motif in various world theologies, mythologies, and philosophies
b) A mystical concept alluding to the interconnectedness of all life on our planet
c) And a metaphor for common descent in the evolutionary sense.
This beautiful little piece of sugilite looked to have a waterfall in the center so I places the tree so it appears to be leaning out over the top of it. It measures approximately 1" inch (2.54 cm) across at the widest point and approximately 1.5" inches (3.81 cm) from top to bottom.
This pendant will come on a 27" black satin cord unless otherwise specified. I can place it on a 16" or 18" inch sterling silver chain as well for an additional $10 which can be purchased separately.
If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions please feel free to contact me and thank you so very much for looking!
