  1. [HAG STONE]
    Savez-vous ce qu'est une "hag stone"? C'est une pierre naturellement trouée en son centre et polie. Ces pierres ont été le support de bien des légendes. En Angleterre, on raconte qu'on peut voir la vraie nature des sorcières et des fées en regardant dans le trou...

  3. Our Large Odin Stone Pendant Necklace in Recycled Sterling Silver. Beautifully textured & varied on each side, a lovely tactile piece.

    Naturally formed holey stones go by many names: hag stones, Odin stones, or fairy stones.

    This was made by hand in our home studio in Kirkwall, Orkney, inspired by the wild, ancient Orkney landscape with its unique blend of Scottish and Norse culture & history.

  5. loving this #hagstone - now if I can just work out how to fit through it

  6. Another multi-holed Hagstone - this one reminds me of the Moai from Rapa Nui (The large statues from Easter Island) but pocket sized.
    It is actually a piece of shale that's been drilled through by Piddocks (marine bivalves).
    County Clare, Ireland.

  9. Found this rather pretty #hagstone (or adder stone) at the beach today.

    Formed by moving water, most commonly seas and oceans (but occasionally river hagstones can be found), they are said to offer protection to those they find.

    The hole is said to only let good things through and looking through one may also give you a glimpse of other realms.
