Vegvisir Pendant Necklace which would make a magical gift The Vegvisir is recorded as an ancient Icelandic magical stave, a symbol designed to help the bearer navigate through storms, heavy seas and similar weathers such as heavy snow as well as being a symbol of protection. This pendant is made from 5000 year old Irish Bog Oak wood (These bogwoods are retrieved from the Irish boglands where they have been buried for centuries, the antiseptic action of the bog causes the texture of the wood to transform, in this case the Oak becomes a fine black, self-lubricating wood, fabulous to touch with almost magical properties) Oval in shape, the approximate height is 2" or 5cms, width is 1.4" or 3.5cm and approx 0.2" or 0.5cm in thickness Threaded through a Tibetan Silver pendant hanger and attached with a silver plated loop, the overall length of the black leather cord is 32" maximum although this has an adjustable sliding knot so can be adjusted smaller to suit your preference. finished in beeswax for a natural protection Complete in a natural card gift box, approx 3" x 2" so would make a lovely Gift for someone special
