Description
FINALLY AFTER 3 YEARS BACK IN STOCK!
These necklaces were Ritually handcrafted by The Witch and are an ode to Baba Yaga and her hut. It is said that if you encounter her, she will either eat you, put you to work or give you advice. If she gives you advice, the outcome will be better than you could imagine. If she puts you to work, the work will be hard but you will do better than you ever dreamed possible. If she eats you, well, better luck in the next life! In story and song, she is a Russian witch, best known for her dealings with Vasalisa. Around the mortar are images from one of these tales. She rides her mortar, using her pestle as a rudder and sweeps away her tracks with a broom as she travels the night sky.
Baba Yaga lives in a hut which stand on chicken legs. In most folk tales she is portrayed as an antagonist; however, some characters in other mythological folk stories have been known to seek her out for her wisdom, and she has been known on occasion to offer guidance to lost souls.
Adorn to invoke Baba’s wisdom, remember the past & to power through obstacles yet to come.

It’s a very good set. The necklace consists of beautifully carved stone beads, 1 cm in length each, with a slight glimmer in the black stone, separated by silver points, and a length of 24 inches, so you can double it up. The box is exquisite, 4.5 inches in length, beautifully made, with what appears to be silvery dried moss on the inside, giving it rather the appearance of a miniature ritual site. The oil is a good size and I like the scent. I am pleased with the set.
