Product Description
This Irish Bog Oak Wood Ring is made with a genuine piece of Irish bog oak which is between 4,000 to 6,000 years old. It is made by James Carroll of STICKMAN from Glenealy, Wicklow.
The metal in the ring base is adjustable to size and is antiqued brass and as such is lead and nickel free. The result is truly original and gorgeous.
The colour of this Irish Bog Oak Wood Ring is black, this is because the wood has absorbed the tannins from the boggy water.
Bog Oak is ‘pre petrified’ wood that has been prevented from decaying for thousands of years.
One evening I was traveling accross a bog road in Co Westmeath. I stopped and asked two men fixing a tractor at the side of the road if they knew of any Bog Oak around. One looked at the other and asked ‘Shud we take him to see de shtick?’
I was taken across the bog to view a thirty foot trunk that had recently been exposed after millenia underground.
We struck a deal and now it’s here…and made into a ring.
We are more than happy to send this Irish Bog Oak Wood Ring as a present to anywhere in the world you like and can gift wrap, just let us know as a note in checkout.
