A small gemstone tree with lively detail
This decorative sculpture takes the shape of a small gemstone tree: black tourmaline pieces are threaded onto fine wire branches, so the foliage is made up of tiny sparkling stones. The base stabilises the branches, so the sculpture stands safely on a shelf, table or windowsill. You receive a compact piece that already on its own is an eye-catching detail.
Black tourmaline in the language of symbols
Black tourmaline is a dark, often greyish-black stone, traditionally associated with protection and grounding. Because every small stone is naturally tumbled, every bead has a unique shape and surface, and no two sculptures are ever exactly the same. You can also fill the object with your own personal meaning.
How you can use it day to day
The sculpture looks lovely on a desk, a bookshelf, a mantelpiece or in a meditation corner. It also makes a thoughtful gift for a birthday, housewarming or for a friend or family member who likes stones. Thanks to its small size, it still fits in even when almost every shelf in your home is full.
Tips for placement
Place the sculpture where you can see it often but where it will not easily be knocked over: inside a bookshelf, in a corner of the table, on a windowsill. Avoid the immediate area of radiators or fireplaces. In indirect natural light, the black tourmaline beads sparkle gently, and the sculpture looks more alive.
Cleaning and care
Dust the sculpture with a soft, dry brush or a gentle cloth. Do not use strong cleaners or washing-up liquid. If the stones lose some of their shine, carefully wipe them with a soft cloth. Do not bend the wire branches, as they can break when forced back, and the stones may then fall off the surface.
