Bear-Mother

In her ancient arms we are cocooned.
Primordial Mother of Land
and Hearth
and Loom.

Beron
Cave dwelling creature,
She of the protective veils.
Soft furred nurturer,
Fierce Mother of stone hearts.
Your wisdom still ripples here,
For the Land holds you in reverent Palms.

This is the second piece to emerge as part of my Becoming Mother Collection.

Although Bears have long since left this Emerald Isle, there are remnants of them still. In the limestone caves, buried deep beneath the earth, atop granite tors and sometimes, if you listen openly, you can hear their sound on the wind.

The spirit of Bear teaches me of strength, of gentle mothering, of fierce protection, of vast softness and sharp teeth. Bear feels wild and roaming, grounded and divine. A true Nurturer. A wise earthly teacher.

This Shawl marries together regeneratively grazed wool from Fernhill fibre, wild harvested muga silk, Uk alpaca fleece and a woollen warp from the Shetland Islands.

It was devotionally created in honour to the Mother in the March of 2024.

There is the option to buy a hand crafted Shawl pin, shaped by my Partner from Local foraged Devon Oak, finished with Organic Linseed oil. You'll find the listing in the 'products' section of the website.

There is always the option to pay in instalments. Get in contact via email if you would like to discuss a payment plan.

With Gratitude to Lauren of Bare Folk Photography for the beautiful Imagery.
