On this piece, I was inspired by Nelson Mandala, and what he stood for in this Country.
It is made out of Gold filled 20 gauge wire that was forged or flattened, and formed in shape of the Country to be at almost the same level of the gemstone; and the trunk and tree branches give the stone a focal point and also lock’s it in place.
The neck piece is suede brown cord, that fastens of medal large hole bead.

A Jewel in The Making
I like your design idea for the Tree of Life, Rose, and how you’ve put it in the heart of Africa. Thank you for sharing this interesting wire pendant!
Thank you so much Rena for featuring one of my pieces, I am flattered and honored that one of my babies were chosen. It feels like a stepping stone to something else, who knows what the future holds for me in this business. Thanks again
