A light tree with copper branches, whose amethyst leaves range from lilac to purple. It stands on a purple agate slice whose irregular edge evokes a little island.
Available as 35 chips (10 cm) or 100 chips (13 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
A tree of amethyst chips mounted on copper-tone metal wire, set on a dyed purple agate slice (the vivid colour of the base is not natural). A purple variety of quartz, coloured by traces of iron. It may fade if exposed to the sun for a long time.

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. Clean the agate slice dry.
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
Amethyst is associated in tradition with serenity, peaceful sleep and intuition. 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.
