Description
This outstanding & unique hand-carved 5000 year old Irish Bog Oak necklace has been made for you, or a loved one, in my studio on the West of Ireland. Bog Oak comes from ancient forests that once covered Ireland. Huge oaks have been buried in peat bogs & preserved from decay by the acidic & anaerobic bog conditions, sometimes for hundreds or even thousands of years. The wood is usually stained black by tannin dissolved in the acidic water. Bog-wood represents the early stages in the fossilization of wood, with further stages ultimately forming lignite & coal over a period of many millions of years. Known as King of the forest for its strength & longevity, the Oak was sacred to the ancient Celts & is considered one of the three primary magical woods. Light & elegant, this hand-carved bogwood pendant is suitable for both everyday wear & for that special occasion! A perfect gift for anyone with Irish heritage or for someone who resonates with the Celtic myths & traditions of the natural world. This ancient bog-wood necklace make a beautiful 5 Year wedding Anniversary gift, as wood is the traditional gift representing 5 years of marriage. - 5000 year old Irish Bog Oak, sanded to a smooth finish - Beeswax & oil finish to seal the wood & enhance its natural color - On a waxed cotton adjustable cord - Pendant size: 42mm / 1.7'' long - Your necklace will come presented on a lovely gift card with a Certificate of Authenticity. - I use International Express air mail with a tracking (unless otherwise requested).
