All Year Round - Tree Pendant

All Year Round - Tree PendantThe creator of this piece says: I decided to make this pendant as a display of a whole year in the life of a deciduous tree.

It is a wire wrapped solid copper pendant, showcasing a bare, winter tree with the attached Czech glass leaves displaying the seasons change. Starting with bright, lush green leaves in spring, a sparkling pale pink briolette symbolizes the flowers.

The leaves then turn darker and finally change color to a bright orange brown before they turn dry, dark brown, shrink to a smaller size and then fall off. We are back to the bare tree.


The round wire frame was formed out of 18g solid copper wire. I used 6 28g wire pieces to create the tree and then wrapped the frame with 28g wire, attaching the leaves.

The finished pendant was then tumble polished to increase strength and shine.



About the Artist: Ines Arpe

Most of my jewelry pieces are made with wire and gemstones. Colors and their combination is my main inspiration, but occasionally I venture out to make a totally different piece. Sometimes it is to match a certain piece of clothing, sometimes it is to match a certain mood or occasion.
