Squirrels are little forest rangers who protect and manage ecosystems through plant composition. By stashing seeds, cones and nuts during colder months, squirrels inadvertently plant millions of trees with their uneaten food. Losing these sweet creatures would have a detrimental impact on forested areas. Rosella and Loubert Soseeah's tree planter is carved from lovely pink Mangano calcite, a member of the calcite family. This attractive stone is a manganese calcium carbonate mineral. An etched fluffy tail and eyes from inlaid turquoise complete this ready-for-reforestation friend that measures roughly 1 5/8" tall, 3/4" wide and 1 5/8" tall.
