Vegvisir clock

Wooden clock designed with Vegvisir and Elder Futhark

Vegvísir, also called The Viking Compass, is an Icelandic rungalder; a set of symbols made up of runes. A Vegvísir would guide the bearer of the symbol to always find the way home in difficult weather. The word Vegvísir means ”wayfinder” and ”sign post” in Icelandic language. It is a strong symbol of protection and guidance.

The clock is made entirely of aged oak wood with beautiful grain.

The grain is exposed and highlighted by brushing the wood and giving it a 3D look. The wood is stained with Bismarck Brown stain made by us according to an ancient recipe and protected with 3 layers of hot beeswax. The tree motif is made in the bas-relief technique.
