A small horizontal 'sheaf' of slender, curving twigs is bound at its center with thick wire. Interwoven into the wire is a red twine from which hangs a traditional pear-shaped bell. The hanger for the sheaf is made from thinner crafting that is wound into a vine-like appearance. The sheaf has a very rustic appearance with its un-aligned ends and random bunching, just as the ends of the red twine are left untrimmed.
The color red is often used to enhance something's properties, in this case the cleansing power of the bell.
Because these twigs curve a little in all directions, including backward, this bell should be hung either from above or on a very long nail.
Our bells, windchimes, sun-catchers and wall hangings are handmade in our studio in Garden Grove, California. They are crafted from a variety of materials - both natural and manmade - including charms, amulets, and talismans associated with protection, energy-cleansing, luck, serenity and other spiritual benefits. We also incorporate pre-owned/loved and recycled elements when they're available. We try to blend all these elements together in a way that is organic and entirely human. We hope you enjoy them and all their imperfections, which we think gives them a casual and rustic character.
We make these bells only to be used as you see fit - hung on doors or next to windows for protection, to clear negative energies around your altar, or as a useful tool in your witchcraft and Pagan practice.
