Handcrafted Hanging Ornament – Irish Hardwood
A handcrafted hanging ornament made from Irish hardwood, turned and finished in my workshop in Tralee, Co. Kerry.
 
About This Piece
Each ornament is individually turned from Irish hardwood, chosen for its natural grain and character. Every piece is made freehand in the moment, without templates or patterns, so no two are ever the same.
 
The images shown are examples of previous pieces. Your ornament will be similar in style, but the exact grain, shape, and detail will vary slightly, making each one unique.
 
The coloured finish is created using Hampshire Sheen Intrinsic Colours, with subtle highlights added using gold embellishing wax to bring out the detail in the design.
 
Originally created as Christmas tree decorations, these pieces are now popular all year round as small gifts or decorative hanging ornaments.

Finish & Care
Each piece is finely sanded and finished with sanding sealer and wax for a smooth, tactile feel.
 
Due to the wax finish, avoid storing in high temperatures (such as attics), as this can affect the surface.
