A tall pear-cut moonstone, milky and slightly domed, throwing blue at one angle and warm pink at the next. The silver tree laid over it is more open than most: a slim trunk shaped as a woman with a child in her arms, branches lifting away in thin sprays of leaves that leave the middle of the stone clear, and knotted roots gathering at the narrow base.
Fine clear stones are set in a single row all round the teardrop, tracing the outline in bright points. The bail is plain and polished, and the pendant comes on a box chain.
The pear shape sits lower on the chest than a heart does, which makes it easy to wear over a high-necked jumper through autumn. A gift for a mother, a midwife, a friend growing something new - and a quiet piece for lunar work when you want the moon on you rather than announced.
