Starry Night under the Oak brass and copper buckle.
This is an all hand forged oak tree crafted from 5 sections of .999 pure copper welded to yellow brass . The tree has 21 branch ends and 7 root ends .
I don't make many buckles usually after a good bonfire gathering I will get an idea or inspiration during one of these .This came to me from the last one I had a few weeks back When we celebrated my son Trey becoming an adult . It was a good and Fun gathering .
symbolism

Wisdom is the number that denotes keen observation, honing ones Mind to fine sharp edge , was used for alchemy , a desire to know how things work and fit together . So this number was used in the base of the tree .
5 Is the number of man, The four elements combined with the spirit . the four directions and you in the center ,The pentacle of protection the number balance .
21 is the trinity 3x 7 knowledge and the natural world, Represent the harmony of the creation, The 21 leaves that contain the alchemical Book of Abramelin. The age of true adult acceptance in most societies .
