Antique Tabletop Feather Tree from ANTIQUE ARTISTRY






I have just added an incredible christmas tree... a recreation of a victorian feather tree from the 1800's (I've never seen anyone else in second life offer anything at all like this!) It is loaded with blown glass hanging ornaments I have spent many many hours crafting, glass birds, beads, candles and it looks oh so expensive and real. Please take a look at the photos... but it really looks better in person... Although More than 250 individual prims to delight you it is in a rezzer so just 1 prim charged to your land... and copyable!

P.S. Many of you may not be familiar with the name "feather tree"... I've included here the definition and a photo from Wikipedia (the first one).

"Feather Christmas trees were first created in Germany in the 1880s or 1890s and are regarded as one of the first types of artificial Christmas trees. These first artificial trees were, in part, a response to growing environmental concerns in the late 19th century concerning deforestation associated with the harvest of Christmas trees in Germany. The tradition of feather Christmas trees was brought to the United States by German immigrants in places such as Pennsylvania and Texas."
