CELTIC BIRTHSTONES

The symbols on these stones are from an alphabet called Ogham, an old Celtic language originally inscribed on wood or stone.

​

Each symbol has a sound similar to the tree which it represents. The Gaels ascribed magical properties to trees and associated them with the lunar calendar. Each day of the year is associated with a tree said to represent certain characteristics and strengths. 

 

Our glass birthstone pendants come boxed and strung with black cord and silver plate bead, fastened with a slip knot.
