There are amulets that gleam with light, and there are amulets that endure.
The Vineroot Leaf is one of the latter: a talisman strung with ruby zoisite, sardonyx, and warm wood beads, anchored by a carved wooden leaf and a delicate tree of life charm. The palette is drawn from the forest itself — mossy green, deep earth, and shadow.
According to the Faewilde Chronicles, amulets like this were once carved from living roots and given to wanderers who had earned the trust of the woods. They carried the blessing of the trees: vines would part, thorns would soften, and predators would pause. To wear the Vineroot Leaf was to walk with the protection of the forest itself.
Today, the piece still holds that balance — both grounded and unisex, both relic and adornment. It is less ornament than emblem, a reminder that protection can be as simple and enduring as root and branch.
