Sawed freehand from 18 gauge copper, the copper tree is a one of kind handmade design with a flowing contour that was extensively filed to round any harsh edges, before soldering the tree to a handmade 20 gauge sterling silver ovular backing plate. For a three dimensional effect and artistic highlights, a warm grey patina was brushed on to the pendant to oxidize the metals. Using a series of wire brushes, the patina was removed from the copper tree and most of the backing to leave only a shadow effect around the tree.

The pendant hangs from a copper ball chain that matches the warm copper glow of the tree, but you can also request a genuine black leather cord with slip knots in place of the ball chain. Featuring a one of a kind tree design, means this pendant was handmade just once with this specific tree design. After the pendant is no longer available, a new tree will sprout in a different shape, metal or design. The pendant measures approximately 1.25 inches long by 1 inch wide.
