€90.00
Hand-carved 5000 year old Irish Bog oak Green Man in our studio in Ireland. On a stand or Transparent Display Box , Both included. 78mmx78mmx20mm approx. Bog Oak comes from ancient forests that once covered Ireland. Huge Oak trees have been buried in peat bogs and preserved from decay by the acidic and 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 and coal over a period of many millions of years. King of the forest for its strength and longevity, the Oak tree was sacred to the ancient Celts and is considered one of the three primary magical woods. No pieces will be identical due to being a natural product. Some pieces come with live edges depending on piece working on.
