Artwood, Large Moon WB Yeats (Fiddler of Dooney)

This is a unique wood and crystal Large Moon Suncatcher made in Co. Leitrim, Ireland. The wood is engraved with a poem composed by the late, great W.B. Yeats. 

Artwood uses ethically and locally sourced Irish wood and high-quality Egyptian Asfour crystals.

When hung in a window the sunlight catches the crystal, which acts as a prism and disperses rainbows all around your room. 

The poem is “The Fiddler of Dooney”. This poem is inscribed in full on to the Wooden Moon Suncatcher.

This makes a perfect gift for lovers of poetry, Yeats enthusiasts or anyone who likes to “dance like a wave of the sea”. 

The finer details:

The wooden moon is approximately 6.5 inches (165mm) long at its longest part.

The Suncatcher comes with a crystal:

• Sun: a 1.75″ (45mm)∅ Sun Asfour crystal (flat disc shape)

The wood is protected by using approximately 4-6 coats of Danish Oil. As well as extremely strong, high quality braided fishing line to hang the suncatcher. Moreover, this string does not degrade in sunlight and therefore is ideal for hanging in a sunny window.

The string measures approx 16″ (400mm) from the top of the moon to the metal hoop which is used for hanging.

Please be aware that the suncatchers are designed for indoor use and have not been tested outdoors.

Because all wood is unique and varies slightly, your exact suncatcher may differ from the above images in this listing. Without a doubt, each and every piece is of equal natural beauty. 

In Irish Folklore, wood has undeniably a strong relationship with the Irish people. They believed the trees to be sacred and magical. In addition, each tree has its own inherent properties.

BEECH has long been associated with ancient knowledge. It is said to act as a “guidance from the past” and can help to gain insight. In the home, it is good for healing, meditation and protection.

Crystals bring positive energy into homes. They particularly bestow hope, joy and good luck. They activate positive and diffuse negative energy.
