Yew Wood Rune Pendant – Elder Futhark Symbol with New Zealand Pāua Shell Inlay, Norse Pagan Jewellery.

This handcrafted yew wood rune pendant features your chosen Elder Futhark symbol, brought to life with the radiant shimmer of New Zealand pāua shell inlay. Each piece is made to order, allowing you to select the rune that resonates with your spirit or path, with the addition of a matching stone dot inlay on the reverse to energetically complement the front design.

The sacred spiral of tradition and modern craftsmanship meets in this symbolic pendant—yew, an ancient tree of rebirth and wisdom, paired with pāua shell, which reflects light like an aurora in blues, greens, and purples. The rune you choose serves as a personal sigil: a call to power, transformation, or guidance.

🔹 Made to Order – Each item will be naturally unique due to the organic patterns of wood grain and pāua shell. If you’d like to choose the exact rune or request a particular stone for the reverse dot inlay, feel free to message me directly.
