Ansuz Norse Rune Ceramic Pendant

Made with love on Grizzly Mountain!

I created this ANSUZ rune pendant from earthenware clay. It has been glazed with a rich blue glaze. No two pieces come out of the kiln the same! This pendant hangs from an 18 inch ball chain, which can be easily removed if you have a favorite chain you prefer to use. A gift box is included with your purchase.

The ANSUZ rune, symbolizes wisdom, truth and communication. It is often thought of as the rune of poets.

Whether you are a practicing Druid, or just love the art of ancient traditions, this pendant would be a unique addition to your collection.

This runic pendant and others can be found in my new shop on 1000Markets.com.

It Snowed a Little

A winter scene from my window on Grizzly Mountain.

Central Oregon had been waiting for it's first good snow of the season and it arrived just in time for the holidays. After three days of snow, we have had about a foot here on Grizzly Mountain and more is on the way beginning tomorrow.

My wonderful son will be arriving tomorrow, so I won't be listing any more items in my Etsy shop until after Christmas.

To my regular readers, I wish you all a wonderful holiday season and a very prosperous and healthy New Year!

Celtic Healing Ogham Ceramic Pendant

Made with love on Grizzly Mountain!

All of my Celtic Ogham pendants are individually hand carved by me. There are about as many variations of interpretations of the Ogham symbols as there are interpreters. I hope you enjoy mine!

This "Healing" Ogham has been glazed with an earthy blue glaze to give it an aged look. Each piece comes out of the kiln with it's own unique color! The Ogham writing on this pendant has been glazed with a dark brown glaze, and the pendant hangs from a faux suede cord that can be tied to accommodate many necklines. This material is also great because it doesn't shed all over your clothes like suede can.

If you would like to see more photos of this pendant, or see what else I have made, please visit my Etsy shop!
