When a tribe cleared the land for a settlement, they always left a great tree in the middle, known in Ireland as the crann bethadh, or Tree of Life, that embodied the security and integrity of the people. Chieftains were inaugurated at the sacred tree, for, with its roots stretching down to the lower world, its branches reaching to the upper world, it connected him with the power both of the heavens and the worlds below. One of the greatest triumphs a tribe could achieve over its enemies was to cut down their mother tree, an outrage punishable by the highest penalties.

This pendant was created with that in mind. It measures 3 in length (approx 75mm) by 2 1/2 in width (approx 65mm).

The leaves of this tree are Unakite gemstones (or Epidote) which can be used to draw off negative energy and blockage from the Heart Chakra.

Unakite is said to lift your spirits when you are feeling down - this is the gemstone to help you to see the beauty in life. It is also used to uncover deception.

The wire used is raw copper and brass coated copper (gold tone).

Your choice in necklace length 18, 20 or 24 gold tone included! Just convo me your preference.
