Tree Life with Zirconia Pendant in 18K Gold

A tree of life in 18K gold set with zirconia at substantial scale — the symbol of growth and connection, in light.

The tree of life — _árvore da vida_ — is among the oldest universal symbols in human iconography, recurring across nearly every cultural tradition. The form represents connection, ancestry, growth, and the relationship between earth, life, and time.

This pendant renders the tree of life at substantial scale — 15 grams of solid 18K yellow gold — with zirconia stones set across the branches and surrounding form. The combined weight and stone density places this piece in the statement category: a centerpiece pendant rather than a daily-wear item.

A piece for those who want the symbol carried at the scale and quality its meaning warrants.

Ricca Jewelry. 18K gold. The tree of life, fully realized.
