Myrtle tree, the sacred tree of Goddess Aphrodite of Pafos inCypus. It is believed to be a symbol of beauty and youth. We have created a work of art using two large branches twined in hand, where the endings are many small twigs with blossoms on them. The sculpture is handmade of solid brass, plated in gold solution 24 carats and mounted on an acrylic base (plexiglass).
