Preserving memories

Doodles for turning a small but treasured collection of stones and old rings into something new and giving it new meaning.

The "Tree of Life".

As a jeweller you would think I'd know what makes an ordinary tree into a "Tree of Life. On looking on Wikipedia I find many variants from many different religeons and beliefs.

I now know that it is the spirit, that the wearer gives the tree, that gives it significance above just a plain tree. That being said... all trees have their own significance and beauty too.

But I ramble on.... I do love making new things from old especially when one can incorporate bits of the old things without changing them too much.
