{ SYMBOLISM }
Tree of Life Symbolism - World Tree / Gaia / Ygddrissl
From Ancient Celtic Lore comes the concept that all living things arise from the Great Mother, Gaia, source of Life and nourishment. She is often depicted as a vessel or pot, roundish for the earth which she represents, a cradle from which arises the World Tree, The Tree of Life. Though each tree had a different meanings to the ancient Celts the tree was uniformly venerated as a source of wisdom and hope, an enduring link between the upper and lower worlds, a reminder of the eternal cycle of Life & the Seasons. It roots are deep in the earth and its branches stretched to the heavens. Its trunk exists within this realm. The Tree of Life serves as a simultaneous reminder of our roots and our destination. As it is above, so it is below with half of its being in light and the other half in darkness, half in air and fire and half in water and earth, half male and half female.

{ SOLID STERLING SILVER }
This Pendant is made from Solid 92.5 Sterling Silver. Real Sterling NEVER contains nickel or lead. Our charms, pendants, earrings and findings listed as Sterling Silver in this shoppe are NOT silver plated or silver filled; they are NOT silver plated, or 'silver colored', 'antique silver' or sterling silver plated -- that is just plain confusing!
A Sterling, SS or .925 quality mark that is stamped directly on the object OR attached as a tag is supposed to indicate that the entire piece is Sterling Silver. According to the National Gold and Silver Act if a piece is marked or has an attached tag that says “sterling”, "SS" or “925,” it must be SOLID sterling Silver, not sterling silver plated or sterling silver filled. SADLY -- Lately many pieces coming out of different countries have a 925 stamped on them -- After we've had them assayed, however, it turns out many of these pieces are only 20 to 60-percent silver (not 92.5) -- Remember, ANYONE can stamp a piece -- .925 stamps are readily available on the jewelry making market.

We hope this information helps you when buying your Sterling Silver jewelry.
