Tree of Life Necklace with Amethyst and Peridot, Sterling Silver

I just love the colour contrast of amethyst and peridot and it looks particularly fresh together with sterling silver.

For this necklace I have chosen beautiful, micro faceted gemstones of intense purple amethyst and 3x5mm peridot nuggets.

The highly detailed pendant is a beautiful sterling silver tree (tree of life - further information, please scroll down), total length (including bail) is 2.5cm, width is14mm.

Closure is a classic lobster claw clasp with a pink amethyst drop dangle.

All metal is solid sterling silver, total length is 41cm.


'Wikipedia' offers this information about the 'tree of life':

"The concept of 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 mystical concept alluding to the interconnectedness of all life on our planet,

b) a metaphor for common descent in the evolutionary sense, and

c) a motif in various world theologies, mythologies and philosophies."
