OAK LEAF Sterling Silver Charm
This is a solid 3D .925 Sterling silver charm measures 3/4 inch and is styled after an oak leaf. This is the perfect sivler charm for the environmental enthusiast or anyone who loves the fall.
The oak is a common symbol of strength and endurance and has been chosen as the national tree of many countries. Already an ancient Germanic symbol, certainly since the early nineteenth century, it stands for the nation of Germany and oak branches are thus displayed on some German coins, both of the former Deutsche Mark and the current Euro currency.
In 2004 the Arbor Day Foundation held a vote for the official National Tree of the United States of America. In November 2004, the United States Congress passed legislation designating the oak as America's National Tree.
