Description
This garnet gemstone tree ornament sets a small tree of deep purple stones beneath a clear, arched dome. Each branch is a fine twist of wire tipped with a single garnet, and the strands wind together into a slender trunk that rises from a bed of tiny matching stones. The stones have a shiny finish that catches the light, so the purple reads rich and jewel-like against the clear dome around it. The whole piece stands 11.7cm tall and measures 7.5cm wide and 7.5cm deep, small enough to sit comfortably in one hand.
Its compact size means it fits where larger ornaments will not: a bookshelf, a bedside table, a desk, a windowsill or the mantelpiece among other keepsakes. The clear dome keeps the tree in full view from every side, so it looks just as good in the middle of a dressing table as it does tucked at the end of a shelf. We like it in a bedroom or a quiet reading corner, where the deep purple adds a touch of colour without crowding the space, and it sits happily in a living room or a study. For anyone who loves gemstones, it makes an easy and thoughtful gift.
The tree is set on a round base that rests on a wider stand in a warm brown tone, and the dome sits over it with a small rounded knob at the top, so you can lift it away and see the branches up close. It is a delicate piece, so handle the wire branches gently. To keep it looking its best, dust the dome with a soft dry cloth and, now and then, lift it to clear any dust from the stones with a soft brush. Place it where daylight reaches the garnets, or wrap it as a small gift that will be on display the moment it is opened.
