Wear a piece of history. This bog oak is from the Fens of England. It has been dated to between 4,000 and 6.000 years old. Thousands of years ago, oak trees fell into pear moss bogs. The dark color comes from the preserving properties of tannins in the acid bog waters. If left much longer, it would likely become coal.
These pendants are made from the discards from larger pieces used in my knife-making. They have been treated with Danish wood oil and rapped with copper wire. No two are identical. Expect variations. I made a total of 16 in this batch.
