I made this as a druidry amulet. The wood is sheoak or Cassuarina, which has been formed in interesting waves and shapes by mistletoe. There are a great many varieties of indigenous mistletoe in Australia. This wood was from our OBOD Assembly in South Australia last year. The stone, Cacoxenite, is also known as Super Seven, as it's inclusions represent all seven chackras.
