These velvet bags close by folding over at the top, tying with ribbon. This makes them much easier to fit. They are usually wider than my sheaths, and therefore are excellent for thicker, or oddly-bent wands. They are fully-lined with unbleached Muslin. e-mail
My wand bags and sheaths may be made of any glamorous, mysterious, or glitzy fabric that I find, but are always lined with unbleached muslin to protect the energies of your ritual tools. Convo me with your length requirement before you make this purchase. Choose your red color: The deep and sumptuous ruby velvet, the dazzling Chinese red of my Phoenix Feather Illustrious Brocade, or the faded elegance of very old Zardozi Sari brocade. feedback
This gorgeous wood (pronounced “WENG-ay”) comes from the Congo and equatorial Africa. The black and brown grain is stunning, and creates a deeply textured surface when I cut it– the black grain is hard and shining as Ebony, while the brown grain is soft and matte. This wand is cut in my “Adhara” style, featuring graceful curves and the three-part “wedding band” decoration repeated three times. The simpler shapes are best, when the wood itself is so spectacular. It’s enhanced with softly patina-d bronze metal powder– not paint. rss
Five-and-a-half years ago, I went along with my costume-maker sister Kristi Smart to Pantheacon in San Jose. I just found this picture; you can see that I enjoy creating displays from found objects. In this case, the horizontal rack is an Art deco mirror frame that was on its last legs. I didn’t feel too badly about tucking a sheet of thin plywood in where the mirror had been, and some silver leaf satisfied my love of the shiney– a wash of nicotine-yellow glaze over that made a more satisfactory backdrop for the wands. I sent wooden drawer knobs climbing…
I haven’t even put it down since it arrived! It’s everything I could ever have hoped for and the energy I get just from holding it has almost made me cry, I’m so ecstatic! It has such an incredible and complementary presence! It’s absolutely beautiful and could not suit me more! Thank you so much!!! Magically Yours, Jacqueline PS- You were completely right, the copper is a wonderful echo to the Malachite! Oh, and, amazingly, the color matches the candles in my room perfectly! : ) Jacqui chose a D’Orsay wand in Purpleheart, and she asked for eleven rings on…
I have four orders– three of them are disgracefully old. I decided to concentrate, and cut them during this Waxing moon. I get so nervous, because the wood is expensive to purchase, and I feel that each of these wands must show my very best efforts. I guess I feel that way about all of my work, but Rosewood does show my efforts. Uncompromisingly, in some cases. It was a very sensorial adventure. This is a hard wood, with a very smooth and dense grain. It cuts like butter– Difficult, pissy, arrogant butter. It polishes itself. If I keep my…
I just made a wand that is all of two feet long! And very slender at the neck. One thing that has been a real problem for me is packing my wands. Some of then are far more fragile than a stick of wood ought to be. I’ve come up with a solution, though. I took a length of PVC pipe, the kind with a thin wall. I made a double length tube of black velvet, which goes inside the tube, than folds over and goes back down the outside. I stitched the ends shut, and also to each other,…
I’m just at work right now, guess what’s in my locker? My Wand!!!!! There was a knock at the door at 8:30 this morning (eek!) and the postman gave it to me. I brought it in to show my friend Christine. It’s lovely by the way : ) Thank you so much for including the cloth case for it, that was very nice of you (and it’s a great colour). I’m looking forward to using it this Samhain! We’re doing a “heavy” ancestors ritual, not our usual fun and giggly stuff. I think I’ll ask to help cast the circle…
Words from Reverend Styx The wand is so beautiful! Thank you so much for offering me the chance to own this lovely instrument! I especially loved the natural burl in the pommel of the wand, it’s so much like a wooden geode. Not only did it arrive just in time to be dedicated on the summer solstice, but I also believe this to be a heritage piece, along with Victoria’s wand. We will definitely be passing these down to future generations of pagans. The Reverend chose, once again, an Adhara shape. This wand was 19 inches long, and I made…
I received the wand today and it is amazing! It is every bit as beautiful as the picture! As soon as I unwrapped the wand and picked it up it had real nice energy! I did a dedication ceremony and it now sits in my Sacred Room with my other Egyptian Implements! Egyptian and Native American are my main Healing Modalities, connect very strongly with these when Channeling and in Meditation! Shall be an amazing Healing Implement addition! Thanks Much for the Gifting of this amazing Power Wand! ( Atasha chose this Egyptian crystal Rod, goldleafed and polychromed in imitation…
