The Ogham
This is a spectacular set of handmade ogham staves. Each ogham stave is about 5 inches long and is made from the wood of the tree that it represents - so birch for birch, rowan on rowan etc. Most commercial sets are made from a single type of wood - working with a set like mine, made with corresponding woods helps the reader to connect more easily to the energy of each wood. The staves were lightly sanded to remove any loose pieces of bark and with a section of bark removed at the end in order to be pyrographed (burnt) with the ogham symbol, making them much harder wearing than oghams that are just painted. The ogham is a celtic alphabet/divination system, based on 20 native British trees. It is used in much the same way as runes. The set will come in a handmade bag (all the fabric I use is reclaimed and thus I can't predict exactly what colour will be used next) and with an information sheet designed to get you started. I have several different styles of ogham sets listed so please take a look at my other listings!
Greenwoman Crafts Greenwoman Crafts is a small Pagan craft business run by a practicing witch of many years' experience. I try to source my materials ethically and sustainably. Wood for most of the items comes from my family's fully-sustainable woodland, or from other people's prunings along with deadfall from my wanderings. I do not harvest wood for my work. I make every attempt to recycle and reuse packaging and posting materials, although sometimes this is not possible. All items are new and unused, I prefer not to charge magical items, leaving that for their new owners to do. All items are crafted with joy and love.
