Description

This is a unique wood and crystal Large Moon Suncatcher made in Co. Leitrim, Ireland. We use ethically and locally sourced Irish wood and high-quality Egyptian Asfour crystals.

When hung in a window the sunlight catches the crystal, which acts as a prism and disperses rainbows all around your room. This is an ideal gift for any age or occasion, for him or for her, for weddings, remembrance, special occasions, new baby, christening gift or baby shower gift, birthdays, and Mother’s Day. Or for anyone who just loves all things lunar!

The finer details:

The wooden moon is approximately 6.5inch (165mm) long at its longest part.

The Suncatcher comes with a choice of crystals, namely:
Angel: a 1.2inch (30mm) Sphere Asfour crystal with Tibetan silver wings, a 0.5inch(14mm) Asfour crystal head and a Preciosa crystal crown
Sphere: a 1.5inch (40mm) Sphere Asfour crystal (round ball shape)
Sun: a 1.75inch (45mm) Sun Asfour crystal (flat disc shape)

We protect the wood by using approximately 4-6 coats of Danish Oil. We also use extremely strong, high quality braided fishing line to hang our suncatchers. Moreover, this string does not degrade in sunlight and therefore is ideal for hanging in a sunny window.

The string measures approx 16inch (400mm) from the top of the moon to the metal hoop which is used for hanging.

Please be aware that we have designed our suncatchers for indoor use and have not tested them outdoors.

What else do I need to know about the Large Moon Suncatcher?

Because all wood is unique and varies slightly, your exact suncatcher may differ from the above images in this listing. Without a doubt, we will make sure that each and every piece is of equal natural beauty.

About the Brand

Artwood is the innovative creation of Giolla Liddy and Emily Sachs-Eldridge. It is an Irish family craft business that they are so proud of. It all started back in 2013.

Giolla had been working as a carpenter for many years after his father taught him the trade as a young boy. He soon found that this was the life for him. Together, Giolla and his father made many kitchen cabinets, tables and pretty much anything that someone needed.

Emily is trained as an organic horticulturist and she had been working at markets selling organic vegetables. One day Emily brought home a crystal for hanging in their window. It was decorated with some small plastic beads but Emily only wanted the crystal. However, Giolla looked at the crystal and thought “I could do something nice with that” and so their first Suncatcher was born.

Giolla initially came up with the idea of the Moon Suncatchers. With this purpose in mind, he went out to the workshop and came back later with a beautiful gift for his wife. As they looked at the piece they thought “Maybe other people might like these too?”

That Christmas Giolla and Emily brought their first creations to their local Christmas Market in Carrick-on-Shannon, Co. Leitrim. In May 2014 Giolla and Emily decided to officially set up Artwood as an Irish family craft business.

The business gathered momentum as they attended more markets and set up their own website. Over the last few years, Giolla and Emily have expanded their range of suncatcher shapes, wood varieties and crystal designs. They received funding from the Leitrim Local Enterprise Office and were then able to grow the business even more.

In 2016 they embraced technology and purchased a Laser Engraver. The couple were then able to offer Personalised Suncatchers which proved to be very popular with their customers. Also in 2016 Artwood was featured on Nationwide which gave the business an enormous boost.

They specifically use environmentally friendly packaging and they try as best they can to reuse and upcycle where they can. Most importantly they are grateful to live and work from home and to be able to share their creations with people all over the world.
