Ogham Stave Set Round
Ogham is an early medieval alphabet primarily used to write the Irish language. Inscriptions are found on stone monuments throughout Ireland and Western Britain dating from the 4th century CE. The alphabet is made up of the twenty standard letters (called fews or staves). Each letter is named for a sacred tree or plant which have unique meanings and associations.
While there are some vague mentions of the Ogham being used for divination purposes there are no clear instructions or methods recorded so the use of the alphabet for rune casting is a modern invention. They are sometimes cast onto the illustration Fionn’s Window which is a 14th century map of the Celtic Underworld. The Ogham alphabet can also be used to inscribe spells and create sigils.
These rune sets come in a small canvas pouch with a small instruction booklet providing suggested layouts and meanings behind each rune. Laser engraved, they are handmade in our home studio from beautiful Australian woods.
About Plywood
All of our wooden products are made with locally crafted, speciality laser ply from gorgeous Australian woods. The plywood is 3mm thick and is created from multiple fine sheets of wood to create a sturdy yet lightweight material. Plywood is highly durable and can be easily cleaned. In the event that the wood bends or warps in extreme heat or damp, it can be flattened out with a light spray of water (if too dry) and laid flat under a small weight in a cool, dry place. Due to the natural qualities of real wood, each piece we make will be unique in colour and grain.Packaging & Shipping
