Spirit of the Oak
Posted on | October 21, 2009 | 4 Comments
Nature’s beauty! I am really enjoying using gemstones for healing and well being with my leaf spirits lately, and although this could be worn as a pendant, I have transformed this lovely imprint of a Burr Oak, also called Mossycup Oak, as an ornament. Fashion forward fairies or renn folk could do double duty and use this as a focal pendant worthy of a goddess or fairy queen.
Sculpted using a combination of translucent Kato and pearl clay, I’ve added a layer of antiquing to bring out the detail in the veins and to show depth as well.
The hanger is multiple copper spirals accented with genuine Tiger’s eye and a fire polished czech bead. A piece of lovely hand dyed raw silk ribbon finished with quartz leaves adds a lovely finishing touch!

Love your mystical oak faces! Also, using crystals for healing within you pieces is a great idea! I incorporate them into my healing work also!
Blessings,

Thanks for the lovely comments. The piece is 5″ total length, but the leaf is 4″.
