Tribal Crystal Tipped Magick Wand

Click to enlarge.

This tribal inspired wand began as a bark covered off-shoot of a Silver Maple tree branch. It's a favorite of the wands that I've crafted because of it's almost quirky form and great feel. After having the bark stripped it was oven dried then hand carved. A smokey quartz crystal point was securely mounted into the delicate projection end tip. The crystal was hand collected from Montana and has a very nice natural point. In the wands mid-section rests a tiny smooth amethyst gemstone. The handle portion has an acorn shaped pommel with a carved groove that allows for light charms, ribbon, or feathers to be tied on for added decoration. The entire wand has been hand rubbed with a light black/brown oil paint finish with a buff natural feel.

Though this isn't the best choice of wands to carry in a pocket, it is quite sturdy with a thick handle and spunky attitude.

Rowan and Plum Wood Tribal Fairy Wand



The tip & center of the wand.

This wand was crafted from two different types of wood. The top portion, without tree bark, is the fruitful plum tree for abundance and the sweetness of magic. The lower portion is the sacred Rowan of the Druid and Fairy folk tales. With red bark and partner sage green lichen, the design emerges from the natural. The two sections of wood have been carefully hand joined into a single sturdy, yet delicate, wand to represent the magic of two worlds combined; the mundane human and magickal Fey. The entire wand has been coated with environmentally friendly varnish to protect the bark surfaces.

The entire wand is shown.

 A wand of rowan is known to be used in binding spells and to remove spirits or ghosts. The two types of wood further represent the concept of, "two coming together", by their original growing locations; the Rowan wood is from the Western USA and the Plum wood from the Eastern. The fine point tip holds a polished clear quartz crystal pebble, well fitted into place. Further down, a natural amethyst gem stone has been embedded into the wood grain; The shape is near to a triangle, pointing the dreamy energies of amethyst to do the wielders bidding. The handle end is uncapped and signed by the artist with a simple letter "T". The wood burned band, on the same end, could be used to tie colorful ribbons or beads for special events. No power tools were used, except for the electric pyrography wood burning tool; all work done by hand.

Deer Mink Oak Wand

 A white oak tree had been struck by lightning on a Full Moon night felling a branch to the ground. I was able to ethically and spiritually collect the wood to craft into a variety of ritual tools. This project was a Native American inspired style wand of that oak wood with a raw amethyst crystal tip. The pommel end is a sturdy fusion of a Pacific Mule Deer antler tip with the wood. I accented it with hand trimmed mink fur and a supple leather tassel with vintage ceramic glass pony beads in purple and white.

13" Amethyst, Oak, and Mink Wand by Tree Pruitt

Below is shown the natural irregular crystal form of the genuine amethyst tip. This richly colored stone was not heat treated for color -- I know because I cleaned the soil from it myself. It was quite exciting to use a gem specimen that I'd collected in America for a Native American inspired wand; it felt good for the project overall, and the owner was quite pleased too.

The final photo below shows the pommel end more closely; The pencil is shown for size comparison. Trimming the long dark hairs from a strip of reclaimed mink fur exposed the soft cocoa colored fluff of the undercoat. The antler is held onto the wand by a pin on the inside. I hand drilled a hole into each of the materials and inserted a small metal rod with some adhesive to join the halves very firmly into a whole. The antler was finished off by trimming and sanding to smoothly match-up with the diameter of the wood. It is not an easy thing to cut antler by hand! After having crafted this wand I gained a greater respect for those crafters who'd lived before the advent of power tools, but as always it was well worth the effort!
