The Family Tree of Life Birthstone Necklace is a sterling silver tree of life pendant set with one to nine crystal birthstones, each one representing a child, grandchild, or loved one. Handcrafted to order by The Irish Jewelry Company, it measures 31 x 27.5 mm and is the most personal tree of life jewelry piece we make.
In Celtic tradition the Tree of Life, or Crann Bethadh, stands for strength, growth, and the unbroken bond between every generation of a family. Its roots reach deep while its branches climb toward the light, a quiet reminder that the people who came before us hold us steady as we grow. This family tree birthstone necklace carries that ancient meaning in a design you make entirely your own.
Crafted in brightly polished, rhodium-plated sterling silver, the pendant frames a finely detailed tree inside a circular border, its branches shaped to cradle up to nine round 3 mm crystal birthstones. Choose each stone by birth month using our birthstone chart, and the finished piece tells your family's story at a glance. Chain upgrades and an optional shamrock or Claddagh charm are available at checkout.
Because every family birthstone necklace is made to order, it is a deeply personal gift for Mom, a treasured grandma birthstone necklace, or a Mother's Day keepsake that says more than words. Many families choose it for Christmas, a milestone birthday, or the arrival of a new grandchild, adding a stone as the family grows. Explore our full collection of tree of life necklaces and birthstone necklaces for matching pieces.
Designed and offered exclusively by The Irish Jewelry Company, a family-owned business since 2006, this is more than jewelry. It is a legacy worn over the heart, rooted in love and Irish heritage, and made to be passed down. Read more about the symbol in our guide to the meaning of tree of life jewelry.
Family Tree Birthstone Necklace FAQ
What is a family tree birthstone necklace?
A family tree birthstone necklace is a tree of life pendant set with a birthstone for each family member, usually a mother's children or grandchildren. This sterling silver version from The Irish Jewelry Company holds one to nine 3 mm crystal birthstones, making it a personalized keepsake that shows a whole family in one piece.
How many birthstones can I add to the family tree necklace?
You can add from one to nine crystal birthstones to the Family Tree of Life Birthstone Necklace. Each round 3 mm stone is set into the branches of the tree. Select the birth month for every stone when ordering, and crystal colors can be customized on request if you would like a specific combination.
What metal is the family tree birthstone pendant made from?
The pendant is made from .925 sterling silver with a rhodium plating and a brightly polished finish. Rhodium is a white precious metal that resists tarnish and keeps the silver bright.

How big is the family tree of life pendant?
The Family Tree of Life Birthstone Pendant measures 31 mm tall by 27.5 mm wide, roughly 1.2 by 1.1 inches. It is large enough to display up to nine birthstones clearly while remaining comfortable for everyday wear. It sits well on an 18-inch or 20-inch sterling silver chain.
Does the family tree birthstone necklace come with a chain?
The pendant is sold on its own so you can pair it with a chain you already own. Sterling silver chain upgrades are available at checkout: an 18-inch lightweight chain, an 18-inch box chain, or a 20-inch box chain. You can also add a sterling silver CZ shamrock or Claddagh charm.
