Rune Pendants
Hand made from natural organic materials
| Runes are symbols or letters of an ancient magical alphabet used throughout northern and eastern Europe for many centuries. Each Rune has a literal and symbolic meaning and various magical associations. Old Norse and Anglo-Saxon myths tell of the mystical origin of the Runes, a gift to humanity from Odin, the shaman/seeker/all-father. As legend teaches us, Odin hung from the cosmic World Tree, Yggdrasil, for nine days and nine nights to obtain the secrets of the Runes. | I have chosen the seven beneficial runes below for use as amulets, but I can carve any other Elder rune into a pendant on request. Pendants are crafted from shed Antler of Canadian White-tail Deer, or Hornbeam Ironwood. They are individually hand made by this artist, not mass produced. Each pendant is unique in shape, size, grain and natural color. I use red pigment to tint the carved rune as red is the traditional color for rune work. Size ranges from about 1 1/4 inches to 1 1/2 inches in height. Antler runes are coated with a thin layer of crystal clear protective varnish. Wooden runes have a natural oil finish. | ||||
