For my brother's wedding, a collaborative effort between my biological father and myself.
I designed the fittings, shaped the branch, and made all the drafts, and then he cast/machined/carved the fittings and put it together.
The stones in the gears are synthetic sapphire, the foot stone is a synthetic ruby, and the one in the top is a natural emerald.
If I had paid for the emerald, the overall material cost would be 1200 minus the branch. I would have preferred the fittings (other than the foot) had been made with metal art clay instead of they way they were made, but there was a communications issue and it turned out alright anyway.
