Description Yep, another tree. After making another silver and copper one on request I realized that I'd never actually tried the two warm metals together. So I made another one with a 14K gold fill frame and tarnish resistant copper trunk. With peridot leaves and a few labradorites mixed in.

What do you guys think of the color combination of gold and copper? Too close, or just different enough?

1 1/2" tall by 1 3/8" wide

This one is sold, I normally keep a few trees here: [link] or note me if you'd like a specific stone/metal combination

Definitely different. These are so cool, I wish I could afford buying accessories all the time, because I would. XD

Know how you feel. I try to curb myself on pendants, since I still have way too many and always end up trying to wear my own to try to promote, you know?

Oh this is so clever and pretty... the texture the green stones describe is so leaf like.

Green and gold go so well together - I often think of the description that James Herbert gives of the Lady Jessica in the Dune books - Her willowy form clad in a gown of green ecru, her hair like polished bronze.


A beautiful pendant, I am very envious

Just different enough that the attention goes to the tree and leaves. Looks great!

I've been wanting to do one of those. Never could figure out how to start.

Well, I gave a shot at a tutorial in the fall [link] if you want to try. Not that I want to get you in trouble with picking up more projects

Oh cool, Thanks! The only way I start getting in trouble is with my budget. (It's waaaaaay too small.) Project collecting seems to be another hobby altogether. One a lot of us seem really good at.

Oh I hear you on the budget. On the plus side I like less expensive stones than I could, on the downside, I could sertainly like cheaper ones or have cheaper hobbies!

Yeah. I feel like we need a da club for that

Un/luckily for me, I have no rock stores nearby. They are all North or South of me. Having no car, I can resist the temptation. But then, I'm also very limited on what I have.

Cheap hobbies... that's a new one on me.
