Artwood, Medium Moon Beech Friendship Sphere
Light up a friend’s life with a sparkling suncatcher.
Your friends are sure to be over the moon when they receive one of our crafted Friendship gifts. Irish culture has always found innovative ways to celebrate friendship. Our family is delighted to be able to share these beautiful symbols of the trust and love we carry for the people who mean the most to us.
Our Friendship moons are engraved with the following quote: Friendship is… sharing openly, laughing often, trusting always, and caring deeply.
The Medium wooden moon is approximately 5″ (120mm) long at its longest part.
The Suncatcher comes with a choice of crystals, namely:
- Sphere: a 1.2″ (30mm) ∅ Sphere Asfour crystal (round ball shape), or
We protect the wood by using approximately 4-6 coats of Danish Oil. We also use extremely strong, high quality braided thread to hang our suncatchers. Moreover, this string does not degrade in sunlight and therefore is ideal for hanging in a sunny window.
The string measures approx 11″ (280mm) from the top of the moon to the metal hoop which is used for hanging.
Please be aware that we have designed our suncatchers for indoor use and have not tested them outdoors.
Because all wood is unique and varies slightly, your exact suncatcher may differ from the above images in this listing. Without a doubt, we will make sure that each and every piece is of equal natural beauty. We aim for 100% satisfaction with our Friendship Gift from Ireland.
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.
In Feng Shui wood is the element of “new beginnings”. What’s more, in the home it has a positive effect on growth, healthy energy and family life.
Crystals bring positive energy into homes. They particularly bestow hope, joy and good luck. They activate positive and diffuse negative energy. A hanging crystal such as this Friendship Moon Suncatcher can help to bring balance and calm into your space. They are especially useful in a Yoga room or meditation space.
