The Christmas Tree

The World's Most Valuable Christmas Tree was created by Steve Quick Jeweler to bring hope and help to people battling cancer. To us, helping others is priceless! Weighing 5 pounds of solid 18 karat gold, decorated with 250 carats of diamonds and topped with a 4.52 carat round brilliant cut diamond set in a platinum star, our tree has been valued at over $500,000.00!

Creating the tree was a lengthy process which used innovative techniques just invented. Designing the tree took many months and the wax carving, which created the lifelike detail, added many weeks. The casting process required specialized equipment, which was purchased and specially modified for this project. The tree is made of reclaimed gold so even though it appears very yellow, it is actually quite “green”! After weeks of assembling and decorating, our end result is spectacular.

In December of 2007, we unveiled the Tree, where it was on display before being auctioned, with 100% of the profits to be donated to the American Cancer Society. We have registered the tree with the Guinness Book of World Records (claim #204422) and are awaiting our final designation and category for a record attempt.
