Amethyst Tree on Wood Base 8" Medium
Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz, long valued for its color and, in crystal tradition, for a sense of calm. This medium gemstone tree wires roughly 300 small amethyst chips onto branching wire limbs set in a wood base, standing about 8 inches tall — a fuller, denser display than our smaller 5" version.

Meaning & history
In crystal tradition, amethyst is linked to calm and spiritual clarity, connected to the crown chakra. With roughly 300 chips across its branches, this medium tree makes a fuller statement piece than a small tabletop tree, while still being compact enough for a shelf or desk corner.

How to use it
This medium tree works well as a standalone centerpiece on a console table, altar, or bookshelf where its fuller branch structure can be appreciated. Some people place it near a workspace as a calming visual anchor, or set it beside a favorite reading chair where the light catches the purple chips throughout the day.
Care & cleansing
The chips are wired and glued onto the branches, so avoid soaking or submerging the tree — water can loosen the glue over time. Dust the branches gently with a soft, dry brush, and handle the wood base with a dry cloth.
Frequently asked questions
What is this amethyst tree?
It is a decorative wire "tree" on a wood base with roughly 300 natural amethyst chips wired on as leaves. This is a decorative/symbolic piece, not a health product or medical device.
How is this different from the smaller amethyst tree?
This is the 8" medium size with about 300 leaves, versus roughly 100 leaves on the smaller 5" version — a fuller, denser branch structure.
Is it water-safe?
No — because the leaves are wired and glued in place, avoid soaking or submerging it. Dust it gently instead.
How do I cleanse and charge it?
Many people rest it near a window in indirect light or briefly pass it through incense smoke — a symbolic practice. Avoid direct water cleansing given the wire construction.
