Runic Rune Waxed Cord Necklace

Runes are an ancient script of the North Germanic peoples, carrying the meaning of "secret." They were used for recording, communication, and divination. Their origins are deeply intertwined with Norse mythology, with legends suggesting that the runes were divine wisdom bestowed upon Odin, the chief god, after he hung himself from the world tree for nine days and nights. The Elder Futhark, comprising 24 characters, is the oldest and most frequently used runic alphabet for divination and rituals. Each character possesses a unique, profound meaning, associated with specific deities and birth dates. Utilizing the natural properties of bamboo, this necklace offers a gentle warmth distinct from the cold, heavy feel of metal or stone. It provides a natural, tactile experience without contributing to the depletion of precious forests. We believe in the interconnectedness of the earth, and by using natural materials cultivated from the Taiwanese soil, we facilitate a connection to ancient Nordic powers through the wearer's pure and positive intentions. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53198774873_a86702d06b_b.jpg **| Product Highlights |** 🔹 The rune on the front of this necklace pendant is designed by our artist and then laser-engraved.
