An ornately carved Candlestick made in Ireland from the preserved wood entombed in the peat bogs for thousands of years.
In the Victorian era businesses grew carving jewellery and keepsakes from this dark, almost black, hardened wood. This coincided with the neo gothic fashion of the time which is reflected in this piece.
Bog oak pieces are uniquely Irish tying to the history and heritage of the country. It also makes this wooden material one of the rarest in the world due to its natural preservation for thousands of years under the land.
