This wand is made from a length of Gaboon Ebony, and joined with a handle made from Bloodwood. These complimenting woods give this wand unique properties unattainable by most single wood wands. Each piece is hand shaped, sanded and polished wood. Pieces are joined with hide glue (similar to what has been used for millennia), and are sealed with all natural bees wax. These are all natural, with nothing synthetic between you and your wand. Wood lore! Ebony has been prized by humans for thousands of years, and is believed to be the most powerful of all magical woods. It is incredibly strong physically and spiritually. It is said to be excellent for protection against negative energies, to help bring peace and calm, and it that it offer its user pure unadulterated power! Bloodwood is sometimes called “The Bleeding Tree”, as it secretes a red sap when the tree is cut. Blood is the giver of life, and so bloodwood signifies renewal, transformation and emotional and spiritual healing in many cultures.
