Iron Age Hendy Head, Llanfairpwll, Oriel Ynys Mon, Llangefni, Anglesey, Wales.
The head was important to the Celts of the Iron Age and this head like many would have represented a special god. The top of the head is flat so that ritual items could be placed on it and the hole at the side of the mouth was used to offer foods to the god and please him. There is a possibility that the head is made from Lligwy sandstone. It was discovered on the land of Hendy farm, Llanfairpwll.

Finally finished my recent Celtic knot handle in Walnut. That was relaxing to return to where this whole business started and forget about production spoons for awhile!

History of Pumpkin Carving and Samhain (Halloween)
Without a doubt the most recognisable symbol of Halloween is a pumpkin carved into a jack-o-lantern. To understand the origins of how pumpkin carving began and what it really means we must first take a look at Halloween itself. For most of the general population it is known as Halloween and is a night for dressing up, telling ghost stories, trick-or-treating and pumpkin carving. What most people…

Today's Hidden Gem
Taking a wander through the National Museum today, I nearly walked past this cute lil' carving of an Ox!
Tumblr media
This wee beauty hails from East Lomond Hill, and dates to c.AD 500-800. Carved into (I believe) a rough block of sandstone is the ox, with clearly defined leg muscles, ears and tail!

Oxen were domesticated and utilised by farmers to move heavy loads and plough fields.

New to Tumblr, going to start dumping some of the stone carving that I've done here.
This big slate carving is based on a design from the Book of Kells, all hand carved with hammer and chisels.

My Christmas gift to my brother. I carved out the design then stained it using a mixture made of food coloring. In the close up pic you can see a bit of shine from my polishing, I'm so happy.
[Image Description: Three photos of a buck deer skull that has been carved to bear two designs. The first design sits on the forehead and is a Celtic square knot. The second design is a triple infinity twist that goes down the nose. Both designs are carved with the blank spaces as holes and the raised lines stained a bright, light green.]
^is that how I do image descriptions?

Forgot to share these over here! My Etsy is currently closed so I can focus on the holidays and family, but I’ve been playing around with some stamp carving that I haven’t done in a while! Hoping to have a totally refreshed inventory when I return in mid-January.
