Are there the maple trees where you live? If yes, you will agree, that this is the most beautiful tree ever!
There are many maple trees in the USA and Europe, but the maple tree has become an arboreal fixation for Canada. Never has a tree been loved by so many, for so long.
It is a good hardwood and it is used for maple syrup... but would we love it just for this?
When autumn comes, and flowers fade, the maple trees remind us of the beauty of mother nature. Their exquisitely shaped leaves get all bright autumn colors possible! The maple tree can be gold or red as if it is on fire. It can be purple or have all those colors on the same tree at the same time.
The humble green tree at your entrance in summer suddenly becomes the magnet for everybody's eyes in autumn! It is beautiful when the sun reflects from its leaves and it is beautiful when it is raining and the raindrops sparkle as the small diamonds on gold and rubies.
You look at the celebration of colors against the blue sky and hope for one thing only - that it will stay this spectacular as long as possible!
And it stays... as Vancouver in British Columbia is one lucky city that can enjoy the autumn maple trees look for a very long time, up to 4 month. In the middle of December some of them still keep their gorges golden crowns.
The maple trees are highly ornamental and their breath-taking leaves enchanting visitors to Canada.
The maple leaf has an elegant shape and is widely used in the designs. It has an ideal shape for elegant jewellery pieces. It is well balanced and exquisite. It can be worn as just one central piece or as a set of a few leaves and recall a fall foliage. A jewellery piece is nice if it has one color only and it becomes exceptionally refined if many colors of different metals are used in the same piece. It looks natural as mother nature itself brought this idea.
