CompareStill Becoming
A finished tree is beautiful. But a tree in the act of growing – branches reaching, leaves unfurling, fruit just beginning to hang – that is something else entirely.
This tree grows around a single word: Chai. Life. It sits at the center of open, airy branches, each one forming a space filled with its own world of color. The tree is not complete. It is not trying to be. It is alive.
The Artistry
Braided copper wire forms the trunk, rising into branches that open into leaf-shaped windows of hand-painted turquoise, green, orange, and gold. The Chai in silver sits at the center, grounded and clear. Gold and silver beads dangle from the lower branches like fruit in various stages of ripeness. The openness of the design gives the piece a lightness the denser Tree of Life pins don’t have.
The Details
- Chai at Center: The Hebrew word for life, hand-cut in silver, the heart of everything that grows around it
- Hanging Fruit: Gold and silver beads dangle from branches, catching movement and light
- Open Canopy: Airy leaf-shaped spaces let light through, giving the piece a sense of growth in progress
Perfect For
- Bat Mitzvah gifts: A life just beginning to branch out
- New beginnings: New home, new chapter, new growth
- The woman who values meaning: The Chai makes this Tree of Life explicitly, unapologetically Jewish
