Small in size yet rich in symbolism, this mini broom echoes the besoms of folklore and ritual practice. It is made of natural broom grass (Thysanolaena latifolia) by hand. Its compact size makes it lovely on an altar, in a seasonal display, as a symbolic gift or on the corner of an intimate shelf. It is adorned with a white-metal Pentacle symbol and black onyx.
The Pentacle symbol and black onyx
The pentacle, the five-pointed star within a circle, is one of the most recognisable symbols of modern witchcraft and pagan traditions, often associated with protection, balance and the harmony of the elements. The black onyx that adorns it is a deep-black chalcedony, known in tradition as a stone of grounding and protection.
Good to know
Made by hand from natural materials, so the shape, size and binding may show small variations – which makes each piece unique. It measures about 7.5 cm. Kept in a dry place, it holds its shape at its best.
