The symbolism of trees and leaves is apparent in common metaphors such as the Tree of Life, our ancestral heritage depicted in ‘family trees’, how we ‘put down roots’ when we create lasting relationships, and in the phrase ‘turning over a new leaf’ when we experience significant change for the better. Trees and leaves are ubiquitous in the fabric of our lives. Trees and leaves have deep-rooted symbolic meaning in virtually every culture on earth. Forests are the abode of the nature spirits, leprechauns, and sasquatches. Forests are a refuge from danger, a source of food and ancient healing roots, home to wild animals and singing birds. Forests provide us with wood and paper and oxygen. Forests are alive, mysterious, and constantly changing. Trees, with their whispering leaves, are at the heart of Mother Nature.

To prevent scratches, each piece should be stored individually in its own case, pouch, or compartment. Be sure store sterling silver in a dry, cool place. In hot climates, it should be kept in an air-conditioned room. Avoid keeping jewellery boxes in bathrooms, as the moist, warm air can compromise the brilliance of your sterling. For best results, keep your sterling silver jewellery in a case lined with tarnish-resistant material. If you are planning on storing a sterling silver piece for an extended period, try sealing it in an airtight bag (plastic works fine) to protect it from oxidation and humidity.
