Beautiful and tactile English Yew Wood Leaf Amulet Charm for Good Luck. The expression ‘touch wood’ comes from the ancient pagan belief that trees are sentient beings and that the spirits or dryads that dwell within them hold the power to keep us safe from harm. When we say our hopes or wishes out loud, we say touch wood and look for a piece of wood to place our hands upon to show our respect for the tree spirits, ask them to hear our plea and look kindly upon us.
This beautiful little Leaf represents connection to ours and natures rhythms. We have added a vintage glass bead and the piece has been sanded so the surface is smooth and then lightly waxed with natural wax. It is strung with onto an adjustable cord, so it can be put over your head and adjusted to you desired length.
Yew has always been considered a powerful and magical tree and Yew Wood is thought to be beneficial for regeneration, rebirth, protection, communication with the other world and was traditionally used for dowsing.
Yew being a sacred Celtic tree we have also burnt the Ogham symbol of ioho on the piece for extra energy and protection. 
Approx 60mm length and supplied in a recycled gift box.
All our handmade items are created and infused with love, positive intentions and a little magic )0(
