Story

Crafted by Tunisian silversmiths using a process that dates back millennia, this standing palm tree ornament evokes the foliage that has long lined the streets of the oasis towns of Douz and Tozeur. The plate at its base is designed for holding the henna ink that is traditionally used before a Tunisian wedding to decorate the arms of the bride and her female guests. The palm tree is a symbol of fertility, and the trunk is made using silver wire that tapers gracefully toward the palm leaves and pendants, symbolizing fertility at the tree’s top. Perfect for the well-traveled household, the palm tree will bring a little taste of the Sahara to your living room or bedroom.
