Couldn't load pickup availability
A tree with orange and flame-red leaves, translucent in the light. The gold-tone wire, braided into a trunk, matches the warmth of the chips; the base is a raw rock decorated with a painted flower.
Available as 80 chips (15.5 cm) or 160 chips (20.5 cm): choose above.
Each tree is assembled by hand: the chips, the shape of the branches and the decoration of the base vary slightly from one piece to the next; the photo shows an example from the series.
What this item is made of
Carnelian chips mounted one by one on a gold-tone metal wire that forms the trunk and branches, then fixed to a raw rock base decorated with a painted flower. Orange to red-brown chalcedony, translucent. The orange shade of commercially sold carnelian is often obtained or enhanced by heating, which may be the case here.
If the stone is carnelian or a mixture, its colour may be enhanced by heating or dyeing.

How to use it
To place on a chest of drawers, a desk, a shelf or an altar. The branches bend by hand to give the shape you prefer. Several trees side by side make a little forest. A simple gift idea that needs neither water nor light. Fragile piece with small chips: keep out of reach of young children.
Care
Dust with a soft brush or a puff of cool air. Do not immerse the tree or run it under water: the wire may bend out of shape, the chips may come loose and the base may become dull. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight and knocks. The branches bend gently by hand; do not twist them repeatedly, as the wire would break.
Nature of the stone and photos
A natural stone is unique: its colour, veining, inclusions and size vary from one piece to another. The photos are a guide only.
Some commercially sold stones are heated, dyed or stabilised with resin. Where this is the case, it is stated on the product page. If in doubt, write to us before buying.

Symbolism and tradition
In tradition, a stone of energy, courage and creativity. In many cultures, the tree is a symbol of life, growth and the link between earth and sky; placing a small stone tree in your home is above all a decorative and symbolic gesture.
This symbolism is a matter of tradition. It is neither a promise of results nor medical advice.
