View of a large stone carving at the ancient Maya site of Quirigua located near the banks of the Motagua river in the department of Izabal, Guatemala. The photograph shows the east side of a carved stone zoomorph known by archaeologists as Zoomorph P, as it was first described by Alfred Maudslay in his seminal publication of the Quirigua site in his multi-volume Archaeology (1889-1902). More recent scholarship dates the zoomorph (also known as Monument 16) to 9.18.5.0.0, 4 Ahau 13 Ceh (Maya calendar), or A.D. 795 in the standard Western (Gregorian) calendar. Identified over the years as various different animals, the carving is now understood by scholars to represent a Cosmic Monster with a mountain on its back. The monument was created during the reign of Sky Xul and marked the close of an era in the Maya calendar. It was one of a number of stelae and zoomorphs erected at Quirigua as part of a complex building programme which took place during the Late Classic period, and whose primary aim was to legitimate and reinforce the power of the ruler.

Beautifully Made and Worth the Cost!
Color: XY010-Silver
It's beautiful, sturdy and able to hold quite a few chains, rings, earrings, bracelets all in one place without them tangling up. Also, because it's so neat, it doesn't take up much space. I'm very happy with it!

beautiful
Color: XY010-Silver
Purchased for granddaughter to keep in her bathroom. She normally removes jewelry and leaves on sink. A $40 bracelet was lost into the waste basket so this will prevent that. Came flat so I gently bent the branches and it is now a 3 dimensional tree . Beautiful.

Well crafted and easy to assemble, decorative and useful piece.
Color: Bronze
This ring/jewelry holder is a little bigger than I expected it to be, and definitely is more suitable to a nightstand or dresser than on a bathroom vanity. That being said, the construction is very sturdy and it can easily hold a lot of jewelry. This is a great gift for a jewelry collector who already has a ton of jewelry and needs an innovative way to store and display it. There are a ton of branches on the tree, and each can easily fit 4-7 rings or necklaces.
