Arbol de la Vida
The ceramic Mexican Tree of Life is one of my earilest memories of Mexico. In Tiburcio Soteno's workshop in Metepec, there was every sort, in every size at every stage of creation. I liked his versions painted white, which made you look at the shape. He curves the flowers and the birds and so it was with that I made my Arbol de la Vida, in gold and sprinkled with a few diamonds.
Diamond
Diamond- from the Greek 'adamas' means the unconquerable and so it is, being the hardest of all gemstones. From yellowish to green, red, pink and blue, diamonds are found in all colours in South Africa, Australia, as well as Namibia, Russia and China.
