This tree of life necklace pendant was constructed with sterling silver wire. Set behind the tree of life is a 22.75ct crazy lace agate gemstone cabochon. To accentuate the wrapped wire of the tree of life, I applied an antique finish and then polished the high areas to a bright lusher.

You will receive the exact, unique, one of a kind, handmade, wire wrapped tree of life pendant shown in the photos.

Over 7 hours of craftsmanship, polishing, and buffing went into the creation of this handmade wire wrapped tree of life necklace pendant.

So the tree of life pendant can be worn right away, I've included an adjustable slip knot leather cord until you replace the cord with something better.

Dimensions: 42 x 22 x 8 mm 
Bale inside diameter: 4.7 mm 
Labradorite: 22.75 ct

Crazy Lace Agate is a variety of banded Chalcedony and is predominantly white, with layers of creamy browns, blacks and grays. Some may include layers of yellow ochre, gold, scarlet and red. Agate is sometimes called the earth rainbow because, in its various forms, the concentric bands in nature form nearly every color the earth can produce, including a colorless form.

Another beautiful tree of life wire wrapped pendant with a blue agate stone. This wire wrap was done in pure copper that was then oxidized to give it a nice antiqued look. The patina brings contrast and highlights the intricacy of the wraps, weaves, and twists of the copper wire.



Over 3 hours of craftsmanship, polishing, and buffing went into the creation of this handmade wire wrapped necklace pendant. 
Dimensions: 38x23x7mm
Bale inside diameter: 2.35mm
