Elder Futhark runes set
Made out of a hazel branch from the forest near my home in Switzerland and hand-engraved in pyrography. The wood of this branch is composed of two shades of colours and beautiful growth rings are visible, which make this set quite unique and special.
The hazel is known by the elders as a symbol of wisdom and knowledge. Among other trees, the dowsers favour hazel branches to locate hidden water streams and other minerals and elements. Druids are said to have chewed hazelnuts to attain inspiration and knowledge of something hidden or lost.
Coming into a handcrafted linen pouch, adorned with a white clover flower embroidery on the front, symbol of wisdom and luck, and ornamental embroidery on on the closing part. The pouch is comprised of two sets of cords ended by beechwood pearls. Pull on the cords with dark pearls to open the pouch and pull on the ones with light pearls to close it.
Ready for you to personalise, consecrate, or whatever you feel like to do to connect with it, make it yours and use it.
